EditorConfig window will not save a file named .EditorConfig (PascalCase) #71772

This issue has been moved from a ticket on Developer Community.

No changes I make to the Editorconfig UI window make any changes to the on disk .editorconfig file. This is extremely frustrating and is clearly a very old error. Please let me know if I can provide more information. I can reproduce this issue 100% of the time.

We are also running in this the problem. However I found a workaround:

Adding to Directory.Build.Props:

 <ItemGroup>
    <AdditionalFiles Include="$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)\.editorconfig" />
 </ItemGroup>

Now Visual Studio actually updates the .editorconfig file.
