Hard Error/Force Quit on files with parentheses - ( ) #833

Ran into an issue with the FTS initial index on my files.
I had a directory of files that all ended with "(YEAR)" - opening-parenthesis 4-digit-year closing-parenthesis - as the last part of the filename (e.g - "Training Manual (2001).pdf").

Note the "Force Quit" above
After Renaming (and indexing successfully):
