Solution
I am taking a backup copy before trying this out.

Edit Did nothing here(my desktop is on my NAS so many it is that).

Could you have had multiple things selected maybe(I do not even see how that could happen).

EDIT EDIT
I just selected a pile of files and folders then right clicked on to rename. It look like only the one would be renamed, but it did exactly what you are seeing. I was able to just undo it with Control + Z, but that only works right away.

I found an alright solution i guess. I renamed all of them then put the duplicates into a random folder. I just doesnt let me delete them. Thanks for fast reply tho :)
