Alternative symbol for dot/period/full stop that will work at the end of a folder name?

Question

I'm looking for an alternative period sign that will work at the end of a folder name. It's not super important, but in my music organizing there is an album title that is stylized with a period at the end and it can't show this in Windows. This happens for other symbols too, like question marks, colons, etc., but I have found alternatives for those:

꞉ Ɂ ⁄

...But I've yet to find a replacement for the standard dot. "."

Any suggestions?

(Windows 10)

[“.” U+002E Full Stop Unicode Character](https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/U+002E)? — DavidPostill, May 01 '21 at 07:22
That's the normal one, but the one dot leader “․” (U+2024) on the bottom of the page you linked seems to do the trick. Thanks! @DavidPostill — PJS1987, May 01 '21 at 12:24

You can use one of:

Full Stop - Unicode Character “.” (U+002E), or
One Dot Leader - Unicode Character “․” (U+2024)

One (or both) of these should work at the end of a folder name (you didn't specify your Operating system).
