Additional information

I do get a warning. Can you be more specific in your report?

3

That’s odd. The file is still there. There are 2 instances of the same name. I went to graph view and there it was. I didn’t get any warning though.

4

You mean there are two files with the same name in the same directory?

5

It’s under the same vault in the same folder, so yes.

6

can you put these two files in a zip file and upload it somewhere?

Does one of the two files contain non-breaking white spaces?

Do you copy/paste the title of the file from somewhere?
