A tilde is inserted into the filename by the WINDOWS command prompt when the original filename was longer than 8 CHARACTERS or contained spaces. The name 'My Documents' becomes 'MYDOCU~1'. If there was also a 'My DocuZZZZ' folder, it would be called 'MYDOCU~2' and so on. The name 'Keen 1' becomes 'KEEN1~1'.
