I don't understand the last part. : is not a supported character on Windows at all. Windows games should not expect to be able to access file names that contain it.
- kingaillas 6y agoYes it is, the colon is NTFS syntax for alternate data streams. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/streams https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/stre...
- eznzt 6y ago1) The colon is part of the syntax to access alternate data streams, i.e., it is not an actual part of the file name. In the same way that \ is not a valid character in file names, but it is used to delimit folders. 2) I seriously doubt any game uses alternate data streams for anything.
