# Allow for case-insensitivity in Windows Turn on Windows Feature - Windows Subsystem for Linux\ This allows you the option of having one folder called `learning` and another called `Learning` in the same directory. Not that I wanted this but I needed it as I'd messed up my git repo! You need to restart Windows and it will reboot a couple of times while it installs this feature. Once it's done, open command prompt in Admin mode and run `fsutil.exe file SetCaseSensitiveInfo C:\folder\path enable` You can set CaseSensitiveInfo on a specific folder, which is what I needed to do. Once it's enabled, I was able to `git clone` my repo and fix the mess. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
