Path and display update issue when renaming folders

Post by xiofen »

Update to this issue viewtopic.php?f=62&t=35667 (windows 10, 32bit)

Seems to be related to Windows directory pathing ..

In the folder tree view a directory can appear twice due to the way windows organises certain common directory (note this is as built into windows, no user added hardlinks / junctions added )

eg see first image (Before.png)
before.png
On rename only one of the instances of that folder in directory tree view is updated eg see second image (After.png) :
after.png

Additionally attempting to rename from directory tree view using one of the instances (the one that is not updated) fails sometimes, but not always
