Windows VERSIONINFO information special chars

150 views Asked by At

I wonder if there are characters that I should NOT use in the VERSIONINFO. Such that potentially will cause problems down the road.

    VALUE "CompanyName", "Company Name"
    VALUE "FileDescription", "File Description"
    VALUE "FileVersion", "2.0.0.5"
    VALUE "InternalName", "name.exe"
    VALUE "LegalCopyright", "Legal Copyright"
    VALUE "OriginalFilename", "Original File name"
    VALUE "ProductName", "Product Name"
    VALUE "ProductVersion", "2.0.0.5"

I assume that it is the 'other' app responsibility to consume the strings correctly. I am asking to be on the safe side as this change will affect many files.

Need additional information? Just let me know

Thank you!
