 +===== Case Sensitivity =====
 +
 +//Taken in part from [[https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/case-sensitivity|Case Sensitivity]] on Microsoft Learn platform//
 +
 +When working with both Linux and Windows files and directories, you may need to adjust how case sensitivity is handled. Standard behavior:
 +
 +  * Windows file system treats file and directory names as case-insensitive. FOO.txt and foo.txt will be treated as equivalent files.
 +  * Linux file system treats file and directory names as case-sensitive. FOO.txt and foo.txt will be treated as distinct files.
 +
 +The Windows file system supports setting case sensitivity with attribute flags per directory. While the standard behavior is to be case-insensitive, you can assign an attribute flag to make a directory case sensitive, so that it will recognize Linux files and folders that may differ only by case.

 +//Windows PowerShell opened in administrator mode//
 +
 +Run the following:
 +
 +    Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux
 +
 +This takes a few seconds and will (prompt you to) restart your computer. 
 +
 +=== Change CS Settings ===
 +
 +//Windows PowerShell opened in administrator mode//
 +
 +To inspect case sensitivity settings, run:
 +
 +    fsutil.exe file queryCaseSensitiveInfo <path>
 +
 +To enable case sensitivity, run:
 +
 +    fsutil.exe file SetCaseSensitiveInfo <path> enable
 +
 +To disable case sensitivity, run:
 +
 +    fsutil.exe file SetCaseSensitiveInfo <path> disable
