Is Dropbox changing my file names upon upload?
Hello!
Is Dropbox changing my filenames upon uploading them?
I've been uploading some audio files through the service for a couple weeks, and every time I receive the confirmation email to show my uploads it seems to have lost an underscore from my filename. Example below:
My file on my computer: Project A_Nov2022_Superfly1.wav
What the confirmation email shows was uploaded: Project A_Nov2022 Superfly1.wav
Every time the last underscore is missing. Its always the underscore being removed. Is this a glitch or something? My files will not be accepted by my employer if labeled incorrectly, so I'd just like to be sure.
Thanks for any insight!
Thanks for responding,
Im sorry that I can't upload screenshots of the file names due to NDA issues.
But it is indeed through a file request, and it does happen every time. The last underscore is shown missing when I receive my confirmation email.
The file I've quadruple checked for the proper name on my own computer before uploading: Project B_Audition_Superfly1
What Dropbox shows was delivered via confirmation email: Project B_Audition Superfly1
Is it possibly just a glitch in the confirmation email?
