Thanks for the feedback, renaming is basically how we're resolving. Do you know of any native OS commands or third-party utilities to help identify files with special characters?

Best course of action is to rename the file if possible (and yell at the vendor for doing weird things like that). You could always wrap your installation command in a batch file that renames the file back if you need to.

During the BITS download, the smsts.log reports "hash error", which we`ve narrowed down to the special character in the filename. With the special character in the file name, OSD fails and abruptly exists with a hash error. Rename the file and the OSD TS completes. Is there a way to configure IIS or BITS to not care about or simply allow special characters in file names? Thank you, Al Corsi
