How can this code generate a file with a filename containing a colon on Windows?

On Windows systems, file names cannot contain certain characters, including the colon :
. If you attempt to create a file with a colon in the name, you will receive an error.
If you have code that attempts to create a file with a colon in the name, it will likely fail with an error message like "The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."
If you need to generate a file with a specific name that contains a colon on Windows, you'll need to replace the colon with a valid character or remove it entirely.
