I was trying to create a package which sanitizes file name, for testing purposes, I choose blns <https://github.com/minimaxir/big-list-of-naughty-strings>.
I create a directory, named "blns" and sanitize names from blns and create those files in "blns" directory. I have tested 516 strings in Linux, everything worked fine, for sake of cross-compatibility I choose to test in windows, then I got this problem. I was able to create 515 files in "blns" directory but this one. Since You were not able to reproduce, I will consider some kind of problem with windows OS and skip it, as this is error is from windows system calls.
