I checked the current file-browser, index and picker code at 4e5e17fd on September 5, 2026, using normal client controls in Linux Chromium.
With a small tracked fixture matching the reported path shape:
.temp/audit-IT-SYSTEM-SPEC-v3-GOLDis a folder. Expanding it revealsREADME.md, which opens correctly.IT-SYSTEM-SPECin Files keeps the folder/child relationship. The separate Ctrl+P picker offers only the README, and Enter opens it.folder.with.extensiondirectory and an extensionless regular file also behave correctly. Three actual filesystem/index/picker controls pass.I am keeping this open because your report uses a Windows workspace, which this check does not reproduce. Please add the current T3 version or commit, a small directory listing around the failing path, whether those files are Git-tracked or ignored, and whether the error comes from the Files sidebar or Ctrl+P search. A short recording or minimal example directory would help distinguish the remaining Windows case.

Thanks for the report. One part of this is fixed on main in #10909. Please test on the nightly built from main on 2026-10-21, or on the next stable release. One part is still open: Windows handling of the reported .temp directory remains unverified. If that part still matters to you, please open a new issue for that part only.
