Shared Drive rename has no action at all

Post by bdeshi »

Started inline-renaming a shared network drive. Pressing ENTER afterwards has no effect at all. The cursor keeps blinking there.
Can move away with UP/DOWN or cancel with ESCAPE, but that initial behavior is certainly odd.

How did you get into the inline-renaming? It should be prohibited. At least here I'm not able to get into rename mode. :?

Oh, you are talking about a mapped drive, right? Yes, there seems to be a problem...

Since Win8 mapped drives cannot be renamed anymore (i.e. the previous method stopped working and nothing else is in sight). I will prohibit entering rename mode here.

OK.
yes, it was a shared location mapped to a drive letter.
