PowerRename was working properly on ver 0.84.1, but it is not working in ver 0.85.1.

Reverting to ver 0.84.1 restores the functionality.

This appears to be a bug introduced with ver 0.85.1 or 0.85.0.

Although these appear to describe similar issues, these all apply to older versions. The problem I am reporting appeared specifically between v0.84.1 (when the issue did not exist) and v0.85.1 (when it did).

I have been able to reproduce the issue 100% by installing v0.85.1, and I have been able to resolve the issue 100% by re-installing v0.84.1. Can someone who knows how to please add this issue to known bugs for v0.85.1?
