[SOLVED] Assemblies with "-" (dash) in their name can not be found by Simulator

Subject:
Assemblies with "-" in their name can not be found by Simulator

To reproduce:
Create a new project (you can use the Calculator test project)
Name project Bug-Report-01
Rebuild solution, launch
Simulator will appear, but complain that it can not find the assembly.

Investigation:
For some reason, while the assembly is named "Bug-Report-01.dlll", whatever is being passed to the Simulator is named "Bug_Report_01". It appears that dashes ("-") are being replaced with underscores ("_"). Changing the assembly name to something without dashes ("_") solves the issue.

Hello,

I got a similar problem when there is a special sign (in my case the '#' [sharp] sign) within the path for the created index.html file and
I try to open it in the browser preview. The local path cannot be resolved and I will get an error message inside the browser:
"Webpage could not be shown". The Chrome-integrated Console is saying: "Not allowed to load local resource: ...."
After investigation I found out that the URL is not accepted when you name a folder or the name of the file with a '#'-sign inside (probably also other special signs won't work either)!

This lapse is on the browser side. It can be resolved when replacing the '#'-sign with the appropriate Html-entity during loading it in the browser-view!

Thanks for your notice!
