    Bugreport: Windows 10 folder/file rename bug


    Running Windows 10 home 64 bit,

    When selecting multiple files, then clicking 'new folder', the files will still be marked.

    A field is shown of the new folder, where one can rename the folder.

    When doing so, all selected files get renamed to the folder name.

    Eg:, when the new folder is renamed to 'ABC', windows will start renaming all files to 'ABC (1)', 'ABC (1) (2)', 'ABC (1) (3)', etc....


    The problem is that it happened on files on my Android phone connected via USB cable.
    So there was no way to undo the procedure.

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
