Description

Storage Explorer Version: 1.17.0
Build Number: 20201211.10
Platform/OSWindows10
Architecture x64

Bug Description

If I just upload one .%22 file through Storage explorer, the extension doesn’t change, but if I upload a folder containing a .%22 file, the extension changes.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Upload a file with suffix %22 to container, no change for extension
  2. Upload a folder containing a .%22 file, the extension changes. But for other .%23,.%25.%26 extensions, there is no change.

Expected Experience

What cause the difference? Is this by design or can be improved?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the behavior in Azure Storage Explorer 1.17.0 on Windows 10: upload a single .%22 file and then a folder containing one, comparing the resulting blob names. Check whether the difference is intentional or whether folder uploads should preserve the .%22 extension consistently; done means the behavior is explained and the expected result is verified.
