Q - I'll ask my usual question. It would be GREAT if OneDrive/SharePoint didn't have issues with invalid characters. I hear from mostly Mac customers that if the OS allows the character in a file name then OneDrive and SharePoint should as well. This would help me and I assume others playing whack-a-mole to help folks know they have invalid characters to fix and fix them.

Aug 21, 2024We are working on some improvements related to invalid characters. I'd love to connect with you more on this topic. In the meantime, do you know if there are certain apps that are creating these characters on your users' Macs? When users fix the characters, does that cause any issues? Do you have a sense of which characters are most common? From our telemetry, trailing spaces is the most common so we are starting with a change to automatically remove trailing spaces but more to come here.
