1 Drag folder A to the tracklist - see Change Directory is performed  
2 [EDIT:] CTRL+drag folder B to the tracklist - see Add Directory is performed, and Current Directory is set to folder B  
3 Drag folder B to the tracklist

Expected: Change directory  
Observed: Add Directory! I.e. folder A remains loaded!

I recall also other problems that arise when the Current Directory does not contain all loaded tracks. Perhaps it would be better for Current Directory to be set to null when the tracklist is mixed.

You probably used Ctrl+Drag 😉. Can you please also write the specific folderpaths you've experimented with?

Folder B was a from a DVD so I now see this is simply a case of the issue reported separately

Drag from DVD drive is always Add Directory!

OK, I'll mark this report as [X] then.
