Why are my files and folders getting renamed automatically?

< 1 min read

It can be frustrating when files and folders get renamed without your permission. To help prevent it from happening, here are some troubleshooting steps you might want to try:

  1. Check your computer’s settings: Make sure that the file name auto-updating settings are not enabled on your computer.
  2. Check applications and browser extensions: Review any applications or browsers extensions that might be configured to auto-update file names.
  3. Check cloud-based and online storage services: Ensure that file-naming policies are not enabled in your cloud-based storage provider or online services.
  4. Monitor activity: Keep a watchful eye on any suspicious activity or programs running in the background.
