Description:
------------
The function:
rename($oldname, $newname);
stopped working after the last windows update.
I'm using the rename Function to rename a directory

rename($oldname, $newname);

It doesn't work anymore... 
Before making a fool out of myself, I have double checked it.
If you think to answer that it might be that the directory is in use or a file within it is open ... the answer is no! I have restarted the server and the client and disconnected the internet plug for it.

Reproduce code:
---------------
just fill in the path to any subdirectory and call
<?
$old_dirname="";
$newdirname="";

$result=rename($old_dirname, $newdirname);

echo $result," old directory name: ",$old_dirname," new directory name: ",$newdirname;
?>

Sorry, it is not a bug! simply with this version the folders have to have more access permissions under windows as before.

I'm sure that it is mentioned somewhere in the documentations, which I have missed.

You may drop this report if you like.

Not a PHP bug then.
