I ran into an issue the other day with REN. It seems the issue exists in V16 as well as V17.
I had a handful of files named ECCTOOL* and I wanted to rename then to FKTOOL*.
The rename seems to take place in-place and characters are left over or removed. Since FK has 1 fewer letter than ECC the resulting renamed file has an extra character.
ECCTool ==> FKTooll
When I went to rename them back, I used REN FK* ECC* and it replaced FKT with ECC resulting in files named ECCool* instead of ECCTool*.
