Two folders same name???

I have this issue that keeps happening on a brand new hard drive, new
partition.. etc.
It's very odd I can recreate it from time to time I think its when I extract
files to the lower case of e:\temp or e:\Temp (see the difference).

There's no errors on the hard drive, memory has been checked multiple
times.. I just don’t get it!

Yes Windows Explorer shows both folders as if nothing is wrong! Except they
both have different Date, Date Modified, Date Accessed, Date Created time
stamps in detail view.

Command Prompt DIR cmd:
Volume in drive E is Downloads
Volume Serial Number is 82BE-52F5

Directory of E:\

Any ideas at all this is driving me crazy! I'm about to delete the
partition and do a full format on it???

Thanks!

The NTFS file system supports features of Unix, one of which is case
sensitivity. Rules preventing it only apply to Windows programs. Unix
programs running on Vista are case sensitive (see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microso...vices_for_UNIX about
running Unix programs.)

Windows programs can bypass Windows file naming rules by prefacing filenames
with \\?\ (eg \\?\c:\folder\file.ext). Perhaps you have a program doing
that.

I had SUA installed once and removed it, I wonder if something is left
behind and causing it??? Wow wonder how I would find out what the hell it
is :/

Try dir /x to see the folder's short names. When
deleting one of them ensure that the one with
the short name TEMP remains. Maybe then the effect

Well I'm pretty sure the culprit is explorer.exe.. I think when you install
SUA it enables some kind of advanced file system function, but I have no
clue how to disable it or reverse it.

Perhaps I'll reinstall SUA then uninstall to see if that fixes the issue..
just happened to me again on a different drive this time, I'm surprised my
C: drive isnt riddled with duplicate folders yet.

After deleting about 20GB of Movies that I wanted to keep I was fed up, and
did some research and came up with the following reg key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Session Manager\kernel
DWORD: ObCaseInsensitive
Change value to 1

Seems to have fixed the issue, will post if I find out otherwise!

Well I'm pretty sure the culprit is explorer.exe.. I think when you install
SUA it enables some kind of advanced file system function, but I have no
clue how to disable it or reverse it.

Perhaps I'll reinstall SUA then uninstall to see if that fixes the issue..
just happened to me again on a different drive this time, I'm surprised my
C: drive isnt riddled with duplicate folders yet.

If you can recreate when it happens a program like
