There's certainly a possibility that the renaming issue is a limitation of Windows file names.

I know from experience that Windows doesn't handle all characters in file names as well as it might.

FWIW, I often avoid characters that are not in the normal alphabet and a few others like .-_ to avoid the risk of untoward interpretation as special characters like $ : ! ( ) and so on. In my case that's because I often use scripts like bash or Python to manipulate files, when some special characters can cause mayhem.
