tseward / FileChecker

FileChecker is a utility originally written by Bill Baer to check a folder path against SharePoint Online/OneDrive file restrictions.

FileChecker

An updated version of Bill Baer's FileChecker application.

• .NET 5.0 Console application which should run on any platform
• Dropped WinForms for cross-platform compatibility
• Updated rules for 400 character filename and 250GB file size maximums
• Added a rule when the path + filename is greater equal or greater than to 400 characters

Usage

FileChecker --path /srv/share [--legacy] [--append]

• --path is the root folder where you want to start the scan
• --legacy adds additional checks for '#' and '%'. This is useful if the tenant admin has disallowed these characters via Set-SPOTenant -SpecialCharactersStateInFileFolderNames. See Set-SPOTenant.
• --append will not overwrite the CSV output but rather append to the existing CSV. It will create a new file if one does not exist.

Requirements

• .NET 5.0 Runtime (Desktop runtime is not required)

Platform Support

• macOS (Intel)
• Windows 10 (x64)
• Will probably work on all .NET 5.0 supported platforms
