How do you embed album art into tracks automatically

I have WM11. The album folder has the album art. How do I embed the album art
into the tracks itself automatically? If I have to manually do it, where do I
get the album art for the tracks, so I can copy and paste it?

The album art will be stored as one or more JPG files in the album
folder. If you don't see any JPG files, make sure Windows Explorer is
set to show hidden files. Especially look for a file named folder.jpg.

Once you have found the album art JPG file, right-click it and select
Copy. Then, go to WMP, right-click the album and select Paste Album Art.

Thanks. Will embedding the art interfere with the music data on the track?
(Reduce the quality?)
Will this work with WM10?

No, not at all.

I haven't tried it, but I'm pretty confident that it will.

Thanks for your help. Now I will be able to display the album cover while
playing my music in WDTV.
