I’m pretty sure all the Linux filesystems I’ve ever used don’t care about tilde. You might have to escape it or quote it if you’re typing it into a shell, since the shell might try to replace it with your homedir, but I don’t think the FS cares.
On my ext4 FS I was able to touch me~ow just now with no issues.
It’s something to do with the extraction not liking it, when I run the same disc through the same program on windows it runs fine but doing it on Linux throws an error.
Yeah it’s the program, ~ is not an issue in filenames, Vim even uses it as a character in the temp file it creates when editing a file. Is a VM something that could work for that specific usecase? I know I have one just to upddate my logitech devices
I’ve found a better program that’s more reliable, it’s still on windows but in a few more sessions I’ll have all my discs ripped and can ditch the whole thing
