Does anybody know how to fix this? I have named my audio files in this manner for many MC versions and never had a problem with track numbers being included in the name on import. I then have to go individually rename them in MC which is really getting on my nerves.

01_Trackname.wav

The method of import I use, and have used forever, is drag and drop a folder right into media center.

One approach is to just batch change them all using this expression:
RemoveLeft([Name], 3)

Just type = before the expression when you edit to change the values like this:
=RemoveLeft([Name], 3)

Pick a bunch of files, click on the name column, and press F2.  That'll start you editing.

Then just type the expression I listed (with an equal at the front) and you'll be all set.
