Please add a feature to fix broken characters when exporting data automatically so that they get exported properly. Or at least the let the user know which files were not exported.

Thanks

Hi @CoolDouble, What exactly do you mean by broken characters? In output file paths, characters which are not allowed in some file systems should already be replaced automatically. Do you get an error or do you have problems with the content of exported files? Did you try exporting in the Files or in the File Search tab?

"Invalid character in filename, failed to replace Continue?"

If I click yes, does it still export the file? If so, under which name?

MaxiHuHe04 commented 2 weeks ago

Could you post a screenshot here where I can see the filename/path? Which operating system do you use? Do you know the file system of the drive you wanted to export it to? If you click on continue there, it will continue without that file because it could not be exported. I can fix it after I know which characters are not replaced correctly yet.

The error does not show the file names. Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit NTFS

Which domain or folder were you trying to export? Can you please run the program from the command line using java -jar itunes-backup-explorer-1.5.jar and post the output here after you got the error again?
