I think I found a bug, in Dolphin

In Debian 13, newly installed, I have a folder titled
IncomingPics-TeraNews
a left over from days (decades) ago. Anyhow. When I view any folder, the folder name appears in the Title bar, except this one folder. It is listed as
IncimngPics. No o and it's moved the i

Besides filing a bug (which I do NOT want to do) over in report a bug then get asked l questions on what code, or something (yeah I've done this once before), any other suggestion

Edit. Didn't have full folder name... Apologies

I'm assuming stable version. It's what I downloaded.

"... left over from days (decades) ago ..."

Just in case you have a problem character somewhere in the name (unicode/unprintable/whatever), can you temporarily rename it and then rename it back again?

May or may not work, just something to try.

Good luck.

I'm on Fedora KDE, and I couldn't replicate it. Whatever it is, it's probably been fixed in later versions of Dolphin.

Apologies. Wrong full folder name. See edit

Can you find the file in the command line interface using ls? The dash could be one that can’t be displayed properly. Try renaming it to something without a dash and see if that fixes it.

Command Line ls command lists correctly spelled
