@c.kay I did a google search, maybe this will help you.

I didn't know there was a problem, but none of our filenames have a '+' symbol in them. I rename them to packagename_version_datepackaged before uploading to the DP.

I’ve learned that even if I’m an Apple nut that can get away with naming files almost anything I like, I have to subject myself to Microsoft’s file naming rules as most of my company’s backend infrastructure is on Microsoft including user file storage on OneDrive.
