Sanitize Filename & Encrypt Name issue Codeigniter 3 about codeigniter-multi-upload

[nilshaebel]

As described by @Aradea08 there is a relatively easy solution to this. Open the MY_Upload.php file which you've stored inside your application/library folder. Go to line 381.

This is what it currently says:
$this->file_name = $this->clean_file_name($this->file_name);

Replace the whole line with:
$CI =& get_instance();
$this->file_name = $CI->security->sanitize_filename($this->file_name);

That's it!
