crackling

I have copied some old cassette tapes using Audacity 2-0,lots of crackling & pops is there any way of removing them without distorting the songs.I am on Windows 7.

It pays handsomely to figure out what went wrong, because the patch-up tools never work as well as you think.

If you listen to the tapes separate from the computer, do they sound OK? Are they missing many if not all of the pops and crackles?

When I listen to the tapes on the cassette player the crackling is not so loud as the recording on Audacity.
