You're using the Store version, which can not be "fixed" until Steven releases a new version. Are you certain you downloaded it from the Microsoft Store? I find it very unlikely that the Store gave you v3.0 as that is from 2016, And I'm not even sure if the Store version existed then. The current version is 3.5.8698 and can be found on the MB website on the Downloads page.
I suggest you download and "install" the Portable version, placing it in a directory outside of Windows control. Something like C:\MusicBee. The advantage of the Portable version (and the Installer version) is that Steven is regularly issuing patch fixes for bugs. The additional benefit of Portable, is that backing up MB, or moving it to a new PC, can be accomplished simply by copying the entire directory in which MB lives. After installing the Portable version, come back here and download and install the latest 3.5 patch, which will bring you to at least v3.5.8869, which was released a few days ago. Whereas the unpatched 3.5.8698 was released this past October.
It's quite possible that the issue you're experiencing doesn't exist in Portable or Installer. And if it does, and Steven can reproduce it, it most likely can be fixed with a patch release. Which are always found in my signature below.
You can install the Portable while Store is still installed. Configure Portable to your liking, and when happy with it, you can uninstall the Store version and spend the rest of your music listening time with a smile on your face.
