    Strange duplicate folder in Library - doesnt exist on hardrive

      In my Folder tab of my library there are now two folders for some reason.

      If I hover over the folder name I get:

      1. C:/Users/Greg/Pictures
      2. C:/Users/greg/Pictures

       

      The first pathname does not exist on the hard drive.

       

       

      If I right click properties both are listed as the same path name C:/Users/greg which is the correct one, and they have identical attributes.

      Oddly, in the library version, there are files in each library folder that dont appear in the other and the second path has correct subfolders under it and the first does not.

       

      In summary the first folder has 4000 files and no subfolders and the secons has 4100 files and the correct sub folders.  The first is not a subset of the second though as it has files that only appear in it.

       

      Anyone know why this happens and how to solve it?
