WAFS/CDP follows the standard Windows naming conventions, with a few exceptions (such as no support for Unicode characters).
For example:
- You can name files using almost any character for a name, except for the following reserved characters: < > : " / \ | ? *
- The maximum length for a path is 255 characters. This limitation includes the drive letter, colon, backslash, directories, subdirectories, filename, and extension.
