Multi Rename feature executed on "This PC" reveals peculiar behavior attempt [FIXED]

How to experience this:

1] Have multiple [letter] drives assigned in your Windows 10

2] Navigate all the way up to This PC [i.e. the most main / root virtual "folder"]

3] Select all items

4] Open the Multi-Rename window for them [with CTRL + M]

What do you see? I see that the default Pattern in form of

Code: Select all

[n]
for the File Name want-ing to change drives' letters into multiplied versions of them from already multiplied letters [unsuccessfully I presume - as I have not really even tried to execute this option on them. plus theirs New Name data is all written in red thus indicating errors]

So for example the first of my drive which is C is about to be changed from
C: C: C: C: C: System-W10
into
C: C: C: C: C: System-W10
while the fourth
F: F: Photos
is supposed to be changed to
F: F: Photos


So is this actually some telltale of a bug that can lead to discovery of other bugs related to the inner-workings of this renaming feature - or just a funny glitch without any meaning whatsoever for the reliability if FreeCommander?
