You didn't say how your were trying to remove the tags or what type of files
you are having the problem with so perhaps the following is not of use.
The way I remove tags
in Windows Live Photo
in the left pane right click on the tag I wish to remove
select delete
confirm that I want to remove the tags, the tag is gone.
If there were some read only jpgs that had that tag (such on DVDs) then
obviously they would come back in the left pane.
(the tags in a jpg are within the file itself).
