   Note

   : Folder names may not contain the following symbols ?, U, [, ^, /, :, ', ", \, <, >, |, ?, ], +,* and cannot start with a .. Each folder name must be unique within the project. If a user attempts to use unsupported characters or a non-unique name, an error message will prompt a name change.
