When uploading files to your course, keep file names simple and short. Use letters, numbers, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) to avoid compatibility issues.
Note: While spaces are generally okay, using hyphens or underscores is often preferred for clarity.
Avoid using these special characters in file names:
\ / : * ? ” < > |
Examples of simple, clear file names:
