Hi,

Exists any multiplatform function which check if string contains not

No!  File name & path validity are platform specific.

Jurgen's idea of attempting to create a temporary file with the given name, probably best solution. Also it will check write access to the path, which is useful too. And it is future proof.
Need to run the check on the target of course.
