60% to 70% of the library.

I am renaming through the Genre in the tag browser so fixing it is quicker than through meta data editing

Then I am going to try changing the column definition to straight text and hope the problem goes away
You can not change a column type once made, only change its name.

You can create a new column and copy values over (using Search and Replace) to it
