Special Characters

To prevent issues with invalid windows characters when writing to disk, Collection Manager will replace special characters with underscores.  This character replacement occurs for both PST and ZIP output.

For PST and ZIP folder names, control characters and "<>|:*?/\ are replaced.  In practice, this means mail folder and calendar names only, because OneDrive folders are not permitted to have those characters.

For ZIP file names, control characters and "<>|:*?/\ and also =[]; are replaced.

 

The special character replacement does not affect file content, email MIME, or calendar event data.
