Thanks for checking paulcartwright!

Hmm...odd behaviour. If I have a specific project folder open in its own window and duplicate a file, I can't rename the duplicate.
If I open the folder that contains all of my project folders and drop down to open the specific folder, the file duplicates and CAN then be renamed. If I then go back and open the specific project folder in its own window everything works again.
It's not fixed in any way, but certainly something odd going on. Will keep any eye on it.
