Cannot disable the case auto-changing for network shared folder after upgrading to v1903 of Win 10

I don't want to set whole Windows in case-sensitive, which means "Abc.TxT" & "abc.txt" are 2 files. I just want to disable the case auto-changing by Windows itself.

Before v1903, the names of network shared folder are kept its original letter case name by the switch,

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"DontPrettyPath"=dword:00000001

in registry.

But after v1903, the network shared folder will be auto changed to all lowercase name if its original name is full uppercase. This registry has no effect.

For Example,

\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\000_IT

will be auto-changed to

\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\000_it

How to solve it?

How about use hostname (computer name) instead of ip address,

for example the hostname is "My-W10-PC",

1. use mix-case hostname.

   \\My-W10-PC\

2. use all lowercase hostname.

   \\my-w10-pc\

3. DO NOT use all uppercase hostname, per my test it will lead to all uppercase share name become all lower case.

   \\MY-W10-PC\
