iTunes not updating tags in song view even though song info reflects changes

Hello,

I updated some tags using KeywordsToGenre.vbs by tt2. I also tried this on another song updating the tag manually in Song Info. The new tag I updated, Genre, does not reflect the change when I view the song in song view. It still displays the old information, even if I update the tag by clicking song info or using UpdateTagInfo.vbs, also by tt2.

The strange thing is that if I look at the Song Info, the updated information is displayed. The same goes for when I import it into MP3Tag, the new information is displayed. It is very strange. I even restarted iTunes, and the changes are not reflected.

Any ideas on why this is happening?

The first thing that comes to mind is the multiple tags in MP3 files issue discussed in Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows - Apple Community.
