Stop label disappearing on save

Help & Support
1

I have a collecion of thousands of SVGs saved on a network drive
I am using the labels to set their status.
I'm just using the standard labels over the file system, so that all members of the team can see the same labels.

If I have a label set on an SVG and then edit it and resave in illustrator, it clears the label.
So we have to remember to manually reset the label afterwards, and remember what the label was.

Is there a way to make the labels persist when the file is edited? Or is there a different feature I could use in opus to set a status for a file?

Thanks

The issue is with Illustrator wiping the NTFS ADS metadata instead of preserving it when the file is edited. The only way to fix it is to get Illustrator to change how they overwrite files. (The ReplaceFile API built into Windows handles this automatically, but they must not be using it.)
