In a directory, I have 3 files, all with the incorrect file extension jpgJPG
.
When I type dir *.j
I get no results, as expected.
When I type dir *.jp
I get no results, as expected.
But when I type dir *.jpg
it lists the 3 files, even though the extension jpg
does not match jpgJPG
.
Why is the Dir
command behaving this way?
