When upgrading the f/w failed to change the problem, illegal characters was my next wild guess, and did prove to correct the worst of it.
The remaining stubborn file has a very short/text-only/no spaces filename and is in a directory whose other EPUBS open flawlessly - so it is a mystery, and likely can remain so for a long time as I have much else I can read (and have that title as an audiobook as well).
As an old user from the DOS era, it took me a very long time to accept the 'enhanced' file naming ideas and I've habitually always avoided spaces in filenames because that was certain death in case of any errors back when 8dot3 was the rule...so naming the one folder #.newest was a stretch for me to start with, and will not be missed now that it has been fixed.
Thanks for replying.
