FileBot

I am trying to remove Re:Monster the Anime, and I got the following error



It seems when the name that will be renamed to having symbols or special character, it will prompt you this error. I have seen issue with colon ":", and some other symbol like "|"

Could you please fix this? I am using this format

{localize.ja.n} - {s00e00} - {localize.ja.t}

Moreover, there is no version number inside the app anywhere, not even in setting. I have no way to find out what version I am using. I end up uninstall it and download the latest version 5.1.4 and test again and still experience the same bug.

Windows File Path Validation is not an error. If you click the red Continue button then you will get an error from Windows because Windows does not allow : colon characters in file names / folder names.

Please click the green Validate button to force valid file names. In this case, FileBot will strip all the : colon characters from the file path as highlighted in the preview.





Alternatively, you can use {plex.name} as format. That'll strip : colon characters at format time and thus ensure valid file paths before you even click the Rename button. Please read the How do I organize files for Plex? guide if you're organizing files for Plex / Jellyfin / etc.
