Attachment Links not working with #

Question

we are finding that when an attachment is detached using kutools, the link created does not work if there is a "#" in the file name

Attachments:
• PO #22681127.pdf

that link above is invalid - it turns the HREF into the full location name but STOPS after "PO" when it sees the # (assuming it's an anchor tag?)

While I realize this might be a limitation of windows to not find the file - is there anyway to escape that # character or rename / remove it on the fly so that our links work?
