Steps to reproduce

1. Create a folder with invalid chars in it on IOS app
2. You are stuck in a loop, the app will keep attempting to sync forever, failing every few seconds
3. You can’t delete or rename the folder, the first either local or local/remote will produce no effect, rename will give back an insufficient permission issue

Expected behaviour

The app prevents to create such illegal folder, quits attempting to sync it continuously (as the error message wrongfully states), allow to delete it locally and/or remove it to amend the pending sync.

Actual behaviour

Allows the illegal name and goes crazy about it…

Logs

If applicable, you can post the iOS app or server logs (removing any sensitive information).
