So this is a case of curiosity more than anything.
I am in the process up loading images for a very large number of collegiate products from a certain vendor. Part of this process includes grabbing the style # and searching for it in the folder that contains all the images. For some reason, this doesn't work when I search for any of the products that end in "R". If I delete the R, the image will show up - and if I replace it with a lower case "r", the product will show up. Using an upper case "R" causes the search to fail again.
Since I know it is happening it isn't really a problem for me, but it is weird. I don't know much about how Windows Explorer handles fonts/characters, so I could begin to speculate what is causing this.
Incidentally, I get the same result if I try to search through the pop-up dialog when I go to upload the image, or if I actually navigate to the folder within Explorer. Either way, the filenames that end in "R" can't be found.
I cannot recreate this. Please provide an example set of file names and your exact search term. – Steven – 2015-08-12T15:55:03.967
1So I am adding a lot of collegiate products, and many of them are Oregon branded. Each of them ends in either OR1 or OR2, such as:
JMU1016OR1.jpg JMU1016OR2.jpg
In this case, if I search for JMU1016OR, I get "No items match your search". If I delete the "R", I will get all the products that match JMU1016O*, including the two files referenced above. If I then add back "r" to the end of the search term (JMU1016Or) Explorer will return both JMU1016OR1.jpg and JMU1016OR2.jpg. If I then replace the "r" with "R", I get no matches.
It's very odd, and I can't imagine what is causing it. – seerauber – 2015-08-12T16:21:04.430
1Upon further investigation, the issue only arises when the file names contain a number, and as you mentioned only for the letter R. Odd. – Steven – 2015-08-12T16:33:17.243
