Answer:
The file name recording system is a bit complex in the Windows environment.
-
First, if the file name has more than 8 letters, or if the letter cases are mixed
(upper and lower case), Windows saves two types of information. One is a
short file name for DOS and the other is a long file name for Windows.
- Second,
if the
file name has less than 8 letters and comprises only of one letter
case (upper or lower case), Windows only saves the short file name
information for DOS.
- In the first situation, the first letter of the file
name can be recovered, but in the second situation, there is no information
on the first letter of the file name, therefore, the # is given to the file name as the
first character.
