Not a bug in FP but an issue the the Windows Shell module. Waiting for inpuit on StackOverflow or AHK forum.

"I may implement a workaround to this issue. Instead of changing the folder using a Windows internal command, I could fake keystrokes that would change the folder using the user interface. This is less reliable and can raise issues in some localized Windows implementations. But it could be a viable solution. Let me see how I can priorize that in a future release"

Finally, the only way I found to make this workk is:

run, Explorer.exe Sleep, 500 strFolder := A_ScriptDir Send, {F4}{Esc} Sleep, 500 ControlSetText, Edit1, C:\delete#me, A ControlSend, Edit1, {Enter}, A
