directories that end with periods don't appear properly on PC

Greetings,

I have installed the Box application on my Windows PC so I can read and write files to my employer's Box storage.

On my local PC, directories that end in periods display problematically. The last period, which is the last character in the directory name, appears as a white square.

The directories appear fine when viewed through the Box web interface.

I suppose one workaround might be to rename the problematic directories to remove the trailing periods. However I'm reluctant to do this as this may complicate operations for my colleagues and our company's trading partners.

^^^^^^^^^^^^ On the web site the directory appears fine, not that the folder name ends in a period.

^^^^^^^^^^^ When I view the folder in Windows Explorer, the trailing period is replaced with an odd square character.

I would be happy to hear any ideas the community may have.
