Doesn't <enter> just confirm the typed input for the filename and finish the renaming? How does that insert newlines?

  Shrug, I last used windows with Windows 7, so you are probably right. That being said, at least two of the students I am currently tutoring are on XP and one of my colleagues as well :D

    No, it was always this way.

      Right, I just remembered the main way to create those filenames: open the pdf, select and copy the title, close, rename the file and paste from clipboard.

  Yes - I just tested on Win10+11 because I thought "there is no way I didn't accidentally do something like this on accident... and I would have remembered seeing a new line in my file name when I made that mistake." I just opened a folder in file explorer, clicked 'rename' and then tried the following combinations: Enter L Ctrl + Enter L Alt + Enter Win + Enter R Ctrl + Enter R Alt + Enter None of them let me put new lines in the filename - it either did nothing, or 'closed' the rename view.
