I am writing to report an apparent regression bug in a Windows Update patch:  Update for Windows 8.1 for x64-based Systems (KB2911106).  When this patch is installed, folders can no longer be renamed with Windows Explorer (although they can still be renamed in DOS).  When the patch is removed through System Restore, the problem with renaming folders disappears.  This is 100% reproducible as follows:

0.  Create a System Restore point!
1.  In Windows Update, download and install KB2911106.
2.  Create a new folder on the Desktop (or anywhere else).
3.  Try to rename the folder by right-clicking it and selecting "Rename."
4.  FAILS with "Can't find the specified file" error.
5.  However, folder can be renamed in DOS.
6.  Run System Restore to de-install KB2911106.
7.  Folder rename functionality returns.

Please convey this bug report.  Thank you.
