Summary0004717: Auto-organize doesn't adjust the case of folder names when that is the only change
DescriptionIf the user is auto-organizing tracks, using a mask that changes folders, the folder names will often fail to change if the only change is a change in case.

This bug can be reproduced by:
-selecting all the tracks in an album and changing the case of the Artist and Album
-auto-organizing them using \my music\<Album Artist>\<Album>\<Artist> - <Title>
-->both the \Album Artist and \Album directories fail to update correctly.

Example from Petr of what auto-organize should do when moving file c:\Music\queen\Innuendo\01 - Innduendo.mp3 to c:\Music\Queen\Innuendo\01 - Innduendo.mp3 (corrected case of Queen folder) :
1. check c:\Music folder for characters case
2. check c:\Music\Queen folder for characters case (this folder should be renamed by MM)
3. check c:\Music\Queen\Innuendo folder for characters case
4. move the file 01 - Innuendo.mp3

currently MM only does step 4.

As i said to Rusty, this functionality can make a problems in case user will have his music collection stored on network drive based on linux. Tracks from this folder (and his subfolders) which will not be moved will be unavailable for MM.

I'd suggest to close this issue, there isn't a clear solution to this. It wouldn't be hard to implement, but there are several possible problems and so I'd rather leave it for manual fixing by user.
