Re: FOlder on sd cart wont show in photo hub folders.

Just to be sure, have you tried using the Microsoft Files app in your phone in renaming each of the "missing" folders? For example, the folder name is "Personal", then rename it to "Peronsalxyz", launch the Photo Hub so the folders will be updated, and then renaming the folder back to "Personal".

If you've got folders within folders, then it is not enough to rename the parent folder - you have to rename each of the folders that have photos in them.

Don't do anything else.
