I think I may have caused the album/folder problem using either "Rename… >
Rename Album" or "Properties" in the folder tree. I have been only been using
digiKam for about a week and having fun going though thousands of my photos and
albums/folder and organizing them with tags and photo/album renaming. What I'm
trying to say is I was going through my files at a very fast pace, and in some
circumstances I would cut and paste (maybe something with a space at the end)
to the end of a name or type very fast and hit OK quickly to change a name. I
think it only happened twice.

I love digiKam and have settled on using it, even though I tried a couple paid
programs out. I think in general any function that can change the name of a
photo or album needs to do a better job screening for Windows (10 and below)
forbidden file characters. I think it's because of the libraries the program is
built with. For now I have just been trying to be more careful renaming files.

I thought the colon problem really needed to be reported right away because it
destroyed those files. It only happened once, and since I knew I was
experimenting with rename still had the originals on the camera.
