The default file name used in Windows Media Player for ripped music is: Track-Number Song-Title.

To modify the format of the file name:

  • Select Rip settings > More options
  • In the Options window position to the "Rip Music" tab
  • Click "File Name..."
  • Select the options, unchecking at least "Track number"
  • You may also change the order of the fields
  • Click OK.
