Hacks for storing multiple identical files in one folder?

Hey! It is necessary to store several files with the same name and extension in 1 folder. We tried to add a 200B symbol, but when downloading from our site, it is replaced with a minus.
What other ways are there?

The files in the folder differ in name!
The name is a unique identifier within the folder.
That's why it exists to distinguish between files.
You are asking for something that is impossible in principle.
The next time you ask for dry water, or cold heat, or dark light.

Just spaces at the end of the name do not fit?

immediately shove into the archive. Only to find an archiver that stores files not by name (for example, by crc32), there is a non-zero probability that you will find one. And then mount the archive, but then the OS will not be able to distinguish the files, only the handles will have to be copied / deleted.

Scatter it in different folders and then https://technet.microsoft.com/ru-ru/sysinternals/b...
Although I don't believe it will work.

O0 is the letter O and zero. Visually similar.
You can make a unique combination of these characters in a presumably sufficient number, say, 4 or 10. It depends on how many files there will be in the folder.

If you are playing with low-level file system blocks, this might make sense, but then you are asking the question on the wrong resource)).
In other cases: you should not want it)) If, in principle, such a situation arises, you are doing shit.

Under nix, you can simply use case insensitivity and create File.txt, file.txt, etc.
