Libre Office: Version: 6.0.6.2 (x64)

After updating from Libre Office 5.4.7 to Version: 6.0.6.2 (x64) I can no longer work with files in my primary folder.

The name of that folder starts with an "underline" like "__Office".
It is not possible to open files for editing, because Libre brings up an error notice that it is unable to create a lock-file.
Furthermore, Libre Office cannot store files into that directory.
Instead an error message shows up, which says that the file cannot be found.

The directory in question
1. has full rights granted to that user account, system and admin.

Also, Libre Office does not accept a work folder in that directory starting with "underline" to be set in the general settings.

As soon as I rename the mentioned folder to start with a letter or a number, everything works just fine as it did in all previous versions.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a directory in the root directory and begin the name with an underline.
2.Create a file with any Office component, e.g., write or calc.
3.Try to save that file.

Actual Results:
Saving of the file is not possible.

Expected Results:
Save the file


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

No problem with C:\__Unterline

In your screenshot you show a path in the options called "work directory". What is it in English and why do you have it set up in the options?

i guess it's the:

<item oor:path="/org.openoffice.Office.Paths/Paths/org.openoffice.Office.Paths:NamedPath['Work']">
  <prop oor:name="WritePath" oor:op="fuse">
	<value>file:///...</value>
  </prop>
</item>

folder, english "My Documents".

Dear Manfred,
Does it happen with any folder or just with a specific one ?
