Tags and letter case in network share name

[ale]

I had some tagged files in a local hard disk and made a backup to a network share. XYplorer is set to copy tags on backup operations.
After copy, browsing the network share I could not see the tags.

Here's what's happened: the files were backupped to a folder with a name like

\\Server\E\Video\

that is, if I go to that folder by means of browsing, the address bar shows this name

However when I set the backup, the backup destination was manually typed as

\\server\e\Video\

, given file names are case insensitive the backup went ok.

If I looked at tag.dat I could see an entry for

\\server\e\Video\name.ext

(created with the backup operation), but case sensitivity in tag.dat means this tag won't be shown. In fact, if I tried to retag after the backup I have a second entry along the first one with the "right"

\\Server\E\Video\name.ext

Database check shows no orphans

I believe the path needs some "case" adjustment before XYplorer writes it to the database.

Don was going to implement something to fix cases within the edit orphan part which would ensure that it does only when requested to.

Agreed, something like this has to be done.

I will also add a "case repair" to the database check.
