File renaming problem

[Skiz]

I'm trying to rename all the album art I have in each album folder to "folder" so that Windows will display the album art automatically. I'm getting an odd error though on about 10% of the albums:





Problem is, there are no other files with that name in those folders. I've even been checking the hidden files and folders to verify that.

Any ideas on why I'm getting this error?

here's a very similar problem:http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/...hp/t50810.html

hope some of that helps, even though it's currently unresolved for the op.

That didn't answer my question but the content did get me on the right path and I was able to figure it out.

On top of view the hidden files and folders, I needed to view the hidden system files as well. There I found the hidden "folder" images along with the desktop.ini files and thumb.db files.

I deleted the desktop.ini, thumb.db files, and folder images and am adding new ones now.
