Mp3tag system requirements are modest: Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8 or 7, in 64 bit, 32 bit or arm64, and a 5 to 6 MB installer. This page lists the Windows versions, the older builds, the Mac edition and all 20 supported audio formats.
This is an independent guide, not the developer's site. Download buttons lead to the official Mp3tag pages. Facts were read on mp3tag.de on 14 November 2026.
Mp3tag system requirements for version 3.37 are Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8 or 7, with a 64 bit installer that also runs on arm64 and a 32 bit installer. Windows XP and Vista are limited to version 3.05, and macOS needs the separate Mac edition. The program reads and writes tags in 20 audio formats.
Windows versions
The current Mp3tag system requirements come from the download page. Version 3.37 supports Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8 and 7. The 64 bit installer is marked compatible with arm64 Windows; the 32 bit installer covers the same Windows versions on 32 bit systems.
The developer does not publish processor, memory or disk figures. Given installers of 5.76 MB and 5.29 MB, any PC that runs one of the listed Windows versions should be enough; the real limit is how many thousands of files you load at once.
| Windows | Version you can use | Installer |
|---|---|---|
| 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7 (64 bit, arm64) | v3.37 | mp3tag-v3.37-x64-setup.exe, 5.76 MB |
| 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7 (32 bit) | v3.37 | mp3tag-v3.37-setup.exe, 5.29 MB |
| XP, Vista | v3.05 | mp3tagv305setup.exe |
| 2000 | v2.39 | mp3tagv239setup.exe |
| 95, 98, ME, NT4 | v2.32a | mp3tagv232asetup.exe |
macOS
The Windows installers do not run on a Mac. The Mac edition is a separate, paid app sold as a standalone version and on the Mac App Store. Its listings state macOS 10.14.6 Mojave or later and native support for Apple Silicon. Prices and the trial are covered on the free or paid page.
Supported audio formats
The home page lists 20 supported formats. Each is tagged in its native system: ID3v1.1, ID3v2.3 or ID3v2.4 for MP3; MP4 atoms for M4A, M4B and other MPEG 4 files; Vorbis Comments for FLAC, Ogg and Opus; APEv2 for Monkey's Audio, Musepack and WavPack; and WMA tags for Windows Media Audio.
- AAC, ALAC, MP3, MPEG 4 (mp4, m4a, m4b, m4v)
- FLAC, Monkey's Audio (ape), WavPack (wv), TAK, True Audio (tta), OptimFROG
- Ogg Vorbis, Opus, Speex, Musepack (mpc)
- WAV (RF64 WAV since v3.35), AIFF and AIFC, DSF
- WMA, Matroska (mka, mkv), WebM
Languages and text
The installer includes several interface languages. Both the interface and the tag data are fully Unicode, so titles in Cyrillic, Greek, Chinese, Japanese or Arabic are stored and shown correctly, provided the chosen tag version supports Unicode (ID3v2.3 and ID3v2.4 do, ID3v1 does not).
Version 3.34 added interface scaling up to 200%, which helps on high resolution laptop screens.
Before installing

- On arm64 devices, use the 64 bit installer.
- Keep a backup of a music folder before the first large batch or rename.
