    • Windows 10, FAT32 or exFAT file system

      Renames changing only the casing on a FAT32 file system using Windows are not applied. But this is also not possible with Explorer.

      Needs a workaround like double renaming the file to a temporary name and back.

          Interestingly this does not affect Windows 7. I haven't tested Windows 8, but this fix is generic enough to handle the issue when it happens independent of the exact Windows version or file system in use.

          The solution for PICARD-1991 and this might be the same.
