Mp3tag fails against new exported wav files

I'm trying out the new cakewalk sonar free tier. 

When I export to a wav file, and then attempt to run mp3tag against that wav file, mp3tag says it can't access the file. 

The wav file plays with no problems. 

And so I switched back to the final version of cakewalk by bandlab, loaded the same project, and exported using the same settings. Then mp3tag works against the wav file. 

Switching back to cakewalk sonar free, export the wav again and mp3tag fails again. 

Anyone else have this issue?

Have you tried to completely quit the DAW before editing the metadata header of the wave file, or is it still running in the background? 

CW/Sonar have always had a tendency to hold flags on files & folders of a project even after they are closed in the DAW, and only releases the most recent after the entire application is shut down. 

My other DAWs don't have this issue.

It is working now. For some reason something is adding an underscore to the end of the file name. So I have mp3tag looking for the file name without the underscore, and of course it fails  

I will experiment to see where the underscore is coming from.
