I have no experience with this OS but I suspect 8.3 names. In windows
10 (11?), if you change to the root directory - cd \ - and the type 'dir
/x prog*', you get (on my system):
...
05/27/2026 05:32 PM <DIR> PROGRA~1 Program Files
05/27/2026 09:46 AM <DIR> PROGRA~2 Program Files (x86)
...
The "real" directory names are on the extreme right and the "short"
names precede them. I see both ~'s and capitalization. Might be a
starting point 😉.

Customer has upgraded to Windows 2020 Server and runs ooRexx 5.0.0 as a
service. Names of log files suddenly have ~ twiddles in them and have parts in
upper case which are not expected. On first encounter I suggested to upgrade to
5.2.0 and then have a close look (which probably will start tomorrow).
In the meantime: does anybody have a suspicion of the cause? Is there a known
problem with this OS upgrade? Do we suspect 8.3 names or uninitialised
variables?
best regards,
René.
