Bug Description

If I select multiple files, one of them contains a question mark (or maybe also other special characters), it says "The file "/home/adam/Letöltések/névtelen mappa/Are Pets Considered Mukse on Shabbat?%20-%20R%20Mansour%20(11-22-2009).mp3" could not be found". It could be because during multiple selection it gives quotation marks. Wildcards (like *.mp3) doesn't work either.

However, when I select the same files one-by-one, or I choose a complete directory, it reads the same file.

I have tested this with Kubuntu 13.04 and krename 4.0.9 and have found that any multiple selection of files which includes a filename with a question mark produces an error message to say that the file cannot be found as in the original bug description. This is slightly different to what was originally reported.
