I don't understand why you opened a new thread. But FWIW, it would still be useful to know a) what the actual contents of the directory are you are globbing b) which of those file names is then giving you an error c) and which specific call is returning that error.
Your message "Unexpected error from os.DirEntry" is confusing, as the only method of os.DirEntry that could return an error, hardcodes that error to be nil, as far as I can tell: https://github.com/golang/go/blob/b3896fc331c36a539f825f1f656cef3f9cdffd3f/src/os/dir_windows.go#L68 In the other thread, I also tried to provide a plausible explanation from the limited info - it seems strange that you are globbing for *.txt files and then call ReadDir with those filenames. Have you read that message?
