With a folder structure as below.

```auto
folder_1 ¬
    folder_2 ¬
        window
    window
```

system.nav.openWindow(‘folder\_1/folder\_2/window’)  
Will open ‘folder\_1/folder\_2/window’ as expected.

system.nav.openWindow(‘folder\_1/folder\_3/window’)  
I would expect this to throw a window does not exist error.  
In fact it opens ‘folder\_1/window’

Wow. Good catch. Fixed for 7.5.9.
