This is wrong. Windows uses a
case-insensitive, but case-preserving filesystem
. Meaning that it will store "ExaMple.txt" as such, but querying for "example.TXT" will give you that original file. This also means that you can't rename "ExaMple.txt" to "example.TXT" because Windows will see it as the same filename. You can't rename something to itself.
