Default how to handle corrupt filenames

a third party software produces a txt file with a corrupt filename. this name has an unknown character in its name: a square. with explorer this file can be handled (open, move, copy, delete), but with xl/vba this isn't possible.
does anybody has a vba or api code to handle such corrupt filename?
