Answer 1

To prevent computer errors, the following characters should generally not be used in a filename:

• • (asterisk)
• % (percent)

These characters are often reserved for specific functions in various operating systems, so it's best to avoid using them in filenames.

The underscore (_) and hyphen (–) are typically safe to use in filenames.
