Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/prasathmani/tinyfilemanager/issues/533

It is not possible to rename a file with a quote in the folder of the preceding path. It causes an error in the JavaScript and fails to bring up the rename popup.
As an example, trying to rename test.txt in /Documents/Test 'Hello'/ fails with error: Uncaught SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list
