IMAPI_E_FILE_SYSTEM_CHANGE_NOT_ALLOWED

IMAPI_E_FILE_SYSTEM_CHANGE_NOT_ALLOWED is a multisession continuity rule. After importing a previous session, the filesystem types selected for the new result image must match the imported session. FileSystemsToCreate controls whether ISO 9660, Joliet and UDF images are generated.

Compare imported filesystems with FileSystemsToCreate

Record the filesystem imported from the disc and the current FileSystemsToCreate mask.
Apply application defaults before import or preserve the imported filesystem selection afterward.
If the target filesystem must change, copy content into a new initial-session image rather than extending the old disc.

This is not a file-name compatibility failure. The restriction applies to the filesystem set used for the session image itself. Changing only one file or directory cannot fix it. Multisession descriptors may refer to data from earlier sessions, so filesystem continuity is part of the append model; ECMA-119 explicitly describes last-session volume recognition for multisession CD layouts.
