Files from Windows 10 have meta files with extension Zone.Identifier

Post by waldauf »

Hello,

in our Czech home, we have one QNAP NAS which is used as a file-sharing server. I use Linux and don't have a problem with saving files through NFS even if contains diacritics. My girlfriend uses Windows 10 with Czech localization. Shared dirs are mounted via SMB protocol. But if she saves some files containing diacritics then these files have broken names because diacritic chars are substituted by � signs and have zero bytes size. Next strange thing is that all files have metafile with these name template: <file_name>:Zone.identifier. What I read this is because W10 has a problem with saving files and this Zone.identifier is some sync metafile. I verified the file encoding type and it's saved in UTF-8 coding.

I checked QNAP setting and tried General Settings > Codepage to set to English or Slavic/Latin2 but nothing helped.

The example of the file's name is attached to this question.

Can I ask you for help?


Additional info:
* FIles is not possible to remove from Linux. Just from W10 or from NAS.

Too little information is given.

NAS model?
firmware version?
SMB configuration on the NAS?
NFS configuration on the NAS?
regional settings on Windows client?
regional settings on Linux client?
NFS mount options on the Linux client?

Where are these filenames displayed? On the NAS filesystem? On the Windows client? On the Linux client?
Next strange thing is that all files have metafile with these name template: <file_name>:Zone.identifier.
This is an ADS (Alternate Data Stream) used by Windows on NTFS to store metadata. Zone.Identifier is created by Microsoft (and maybe others, IDK) web browsers when downloading files from the internet or untrusted networks. The default SMB configuration on current QNAP systems stores ADSes in a hidden directory at the top of the shared folder - they should not appear alongside the file to which it belongs.
I verified the file encoding type and it's saved in UTF-8 coding.
Where?
The example of the file's name is attached to this question.
Where was the screenshot taken?

That doesn't look like a native Windows app. What is it?
How do those files look in Windows Explorer?

This setting applies to the text encoding of the file's contents. They have no effect at all on the filename's encoding. So this verification is irrelevant regarding your problem.

Looks to me like the issue is on the Windows side. Do your tests only using Notepad and Windows Explorer, nothing else. And test from scratch, don't use existing files.

If I create a file on Windows 10 named 'příliš_žluťoučký_kůň_úpěl_ďábelské_ódy_walda.txt' and then copy it to the NAS (Linux) via SMB, it shows up correctly on the Linux side. My Windows regional settings and Linux Samba settings are not the same as yours, so that doesn't prove anything, but as long as Unicode UTF-8 is used on both sides, it should work.

No idea about the file size issue via NFS. It may be related to the filename encoding issue, or it may be something else.

That's the Total Commander. In Windows Explorer, it looks identical.

I tested it by using an existing file or create a new one (a TXT file) and always with the same result. I always had used Windows Explorer to copy files on SMB disk.

Damn, you're a lucky boy. :D I have tested Windows 10 with English localization and still the same result. I don't know what to do more. :/

I tested how looks dos charset in the /etc/config/smb.conf for different non-Unicode set in Control Panel > Setting > Codepage:

Code: Select all

[~] # grep charset /etc/config/smb.conf
# Western Europe / Latin 1
dos charset = ISO8859-1
# English
dos charset = ASCII
# Slavic / Latin 2
dos charset = ISO8859-1
I tried to set dos charset = UTF-8. But it didn't help.

I don't know if I'm lucky or not, I think this is just how it's supposed to work so I'm not surprised it does.

The next thing you may want to try is run Samba on your Linux box and test between Windows and your Linux box. That should tell you if the issue is on QNAP or Windows side.

If it's on Windows, you'll find better help from the Czech Windows or Linux communities than over here.

This configuration setting is for legacy clients (prior to Windows XP or thereabouts) that don't support Unicode. I don't think it matters at all in your case.

If it's on Windows, you'll find better help from the Czech Windows or Linux communities than over here.
I create SMB share from my Linux to QNAP dir which I have mounted via NTFS. Everything works fine. The file's name is alright, size too. I can read file content.

Again thx to @Mousetick for your help.


It seems that the problem is definitely on the Windows 10 side. I leave this issue open upon I find out where the problem is.
