Summary	0001852: Local DB will not recognize a file/folder is the same one already hashed if the name is changed or moved
Description	Local DB will not recognize a file/folder is the same one already hashed if the name is changed or simply moved to a different location. If a folder/file is already hashed and added to the local DB but the name is changed or moved, the app will not recognize that the files have already been added. This leads to the app wasting time and duplicating entries by trying to has the same stuff again. When already hashed files/folders are added in the "Add files" section it should recognize that it is already added and update the local DB with the new name and location. This can be done by recording the unique file/foder identifier in the local DB as well.
Steps To Reproduce	1) Add a folder into the local DB 2) Change the folder name 3) Try to add the same folder (now with a different name) into the local DB 4) All files are added again for hashing as they are not recognized as already being added
