Going off of my earlier topic File Management removing unprintable characters I've got something that works.
This is what works:

I can't reproduce the problem, but you can try changing the error handling like this:
(Get-ChildItem -Path "path\to\folder" -Recurse | Rename-Item -NewName {$_.Name -replace '•',''} -verbose -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -ErrorVariable daError) if ($daError.Exception.Message -notmatch "Source and destination path must be different") { Write-Output "ERROR - There was an error. Pay attention : [$daError]" }I don't know exactly the error path, maybe you can show me
$daError.Exception | GM*if that doesn't work. -

$daError.Exception | GM*if that doesn't work.That seems to work, the resulting output is a nice clean blank line. (since there are no errors that I care about)

Why not filter out the files that you don't need to rename?
Summat like:(Get-ChildItem -Path "path\to\folder" -Recurse | Where-Object {$_.Name -contains '•'} | Rename-Item -NewName {$_.Name -replace '•',''} -verbose -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -ErrorVariable daError)
