Rename/move doesn't deal with sidecar or image files

an example of "leaving cruft behind" and/or a slightly broken process (should understand there are related files and process them all)

import a directory containing an mkv of some film
lookup movie info
MC puts a sidecar file + jpg in the dir, filenames are based on the mkv name
use rename/move to change the dir & filename based on new tags
MC completes the move for the mkv successfully but doesn't touch the additional files

Select Update tags from library
new sidecar xml gets created, old one still exists

same behaviour if you get cover art again

JimH:
We will take a look. Thanks.

Matt:
Did you check the box "Move all non-imported files in folder with selected media"?

marko:
Something is not correct or different at your end. Your example is exactly how my workflow goes, and the sidecar plus image file get moved properly with the mkv file, and I do not need to tick the non-imported files checkbox.

All of my operations are carried out on the server and only involve internal hard drives.

it appears to be checked albeit I don't check/uncheck that box at all, I don't ever recall checking it tbh

this is done on the server also, all my drives are hosted elsewhere though that should not make any difference as to whether something can rename a file or not
