ToLower()to compare paths ๐คฎit's valid on macos tho...
Apple's filesystems in fact have an option for case-sensitivity.
Then they're not the same path...
apfs is by default case-insensitiv, for some reason, so the paths would still be the same. It apparently even causes issues with some installers when macos runs on apfs(case-sensitive)
There are StringComparison options to pass that allow you to ignore case sensitivity when comparing. No need for ToLower.
