If you have the following key in the registry:

[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{59031a47-3f72-44a7-89c5-5595fe6b30ee}]

Delete it.

Have you added the sysinternals REGJUMP command to your path?

You deal with reg keys a lot, so I suppose you know about it, but I have
only started using it recently. I look at the list of commands they have
every few months/years, and I tend to find ones that I find useful, and
seemed to have missed on my searches.

You're welcome. The key doesn't exist by default, but would be created if
you changed the icon for the folder. But it shouldn't rename the folder.
