Note: The "Fixing file case" is not a change to the file system, but
only the search for the real file name.

For some reason the code to open the error file got no file name and
returned a directory. DoOpenEditorFile opened it and then you somehow
made changes and saved them.
I added a check to DoOpenEditorFile to not open directories.
