• "File Name Too Long" when copying files on USB using Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)

  When I copy about 60 GB of library files in a backup folder on a USB key, at the end of the copy, it is a dialog box indicating "file name too Long for the Destination Folder.  It shows that there are 62 records like that, and I can choose to ignore these files.

  1. I had formatted the USB stick to NTFS - which does not allow large file names?

  2. How can I see which files have this problem so I can shorten the file names?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  What is the capacity of the USB?

  Were you able to copy before?

  Try to format the drive once and then try and check if it is beneficial because it can also happen when there are viruses.

  You can also check the drive for errors.

• Cannot delete files - file name too Long

  I copied all the files under C:\Users\ to a backup disk (NTFS).  Then I tried to delete the Temporary Internet Files folder.  I'll tell an error message:

  The file names would be too long for the destination folder.  You can shorten the file name and try again, or try a location with a shorter path.

  When I drilled far problem files were I saw a bunch of files with very long names.  I right click on one (in the hope to rename it) and the only available options are: open, pine in the Start Menu, send to.  Delete, rename and properties were missing.

  How can I get rid of these files without having to reformat the hard drive?

• File name too Long to be copied to the same location on Different drive

  I have Vista 32 bit. I know the limits of length of file name.

  In my computer, I have a USB 2.0 hard drive, called 'J '. I have a Freecom 3 TB hard which the manual says is shown as 2 partitions for compatibility issues. It appears therefore as a partition 'K' and 'L '.

  I have a lot of music on my drive J, located in several subfolders. Number of files have reached the limit on the length of file name. TeraCopy using I'm just copy everything in the root of the drive of J in the root of my partition to 'L '.

  Out of thousands of files, 445 of them were not copied. I don't know the reason, but I guess that this is due to the limits of length of filename which is strange, because if the files are already on the J drive why can't they be copied to the partition of L? It's not like I'm adding a new folder in the partition of L, then put everything in there, I put everything in the root.

  TeraCopy is a button that allows you to see why the files were not copied. However it freezes if clicked, because there are so many files - it works when much less files are copied. I guess they were not copied because of file size limits.

• Cannot right click Windows 7 Explorer of files to generate the copy of the file names in a Notepad or Excel-compatible file. HELP REQUESTED!

  I struggled for several hours to restore the service right click that I used to have XP to Windows 7.  I need to save lists of file names such as displayed in the file Explorer. Allowing you to right-click and save files in Notepad. This option has been removed in Windows 7 and anything put in place to restore it.

  I have lists of items in the inventory and need to copy and paste the image corresponding to a transfer sheet to allow the server names to match images in article SKU.  The file names are long and typing is a complete waste of time.

  I used to be able to find them in the Windows Explorer, right-click on the directory and generate a txt file that I could open in Notepad or Excel.  -Easy.  Now right-click only allows an export in an uneditable image in ONE NOTE. This is useless for me. I can't do anything with an image file - I need the editable data.

  Is there a solution?  I need only the file name and extension, not the full path, in a text or spreadsheet document propagation.

  I had used the Microsoft solution to install their dose without knowing the final format was a NOTE image file format and not a simple txt file. I try now too write the batch file:

  %windir%\Printdir.bat

  or edit it in order to keep the file in Notepad and do not make the final conversion into a single Note.

  The problem is that the fix from Microsoft, designed to fix this problem, has placed the conversion file in the root directory and it cannot be overwritten.  I refused the possibility to delete, edit or write the file due to the requirements of administrative privilege mandated by the security of Windows 7 too much.

  So if anyone has a solution to every problem - that would help - I am very tired and frustrated and not happy with Microsoft.  Their zealous concern with security made their unnecessary programs for me and have further discouraged me to convert to the windows 10. frustrations and nightmares are waiting for me there I can't imagine.  What I really want to do at this point is to go back to XP.

  He ate five hours of my day. I don't have the time to fight like that. I am trying to be productive, but all I got are monumental technical walls and roadblocks - often designed into the system. Frustrating doesn't begin to describe it.

  Found a solution on a Web site:

  http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-print-a-directory-tree-from-Windows-Explorer.html

  They said it was for VISTA, but worked for me under Windows 7. You will need to use Notepad to the command prompt and select run as administrator to save the file in the root directory.

  Thanks for the help.

  Cheers.

• Cannot open the folder. No error message. Name too long?

  1. I'm not be able to open a file of some
  2 nor can I rename, see its properties, etc.. When I right click on it, all of these options are missing. Only "open, explore, search,...) But even that didn't work.
  3 - the folder is created by a download manager (eMusic) with the name of music album, where his titles will be saved.
  4. I tried to put its locations in several places (my desktop, my documents, etc.). Won't matter.
  5 - the name of the folder appears to be too long and has special characters:
  Maria zempleni_klara takacs_gyorgy kaplan_jozsef Hormai - Horvath_istvan gati_lajos miller_Kolos kovats_budapest Choir_Hungarian State orchestra_aniko szabo_zsolt Bartha_Ferenc Szekeres P. Madrigal
  6 - when I download an album with a name shorter than his behavior is as expected (can open, rename, right-click on all the options appear...)
  7. as said before, I can't directly delete this folder, but I can delete its parent (and indirectly, the weird folder)
  8 - one thing I've noticed is that if I create a folder in the PC, it will be set by default to 'read only' and uncheck the box even if, he will return to his State 'read only' after the reopening.
  For the love of Christ, what is happening?

• read txt large files (via Configuration files) takes too long

  Hello

  I want to read files txt large (about 1-8 MB) in memory.

  the structure of the file looks like this:

  [0]
  Shape = 'Point '.
  The size of the grid [nm] = 100,000000
  Dose of pixel [pC] = 0,100000
  Color = 0
  X = 38,169451
  Y = 10,102625

  and for example a 1 MB txt file contains about 8000 of these points.

  with the code current iam using it takes forever to the txt file is loaded:

  

  no idea how to make the code faster?

  Thanks in advance!

  The configuration files of NOR is notorious for its slowness.  It is generally not sensitive because you normally just read small amounts of data, but as soon as it's large structures, it is very sensitive.  OpenG has a config INI palette that allows you to read or to write something else that the low level is these screws NOR and it shows because it can be very slow.

  The solution is not to use these configuration screws instead I highly recommend the read/write of MGI nothing.  MGI says the chain of analysis from scratch and therefore it is super fast.  You can install the tools of MGI using VI Package Manager.

• Too long file names

  I searched this but have not found exactly the same problem

  I'm on a laptop with Windows 7.

  Recently, we changed our server to be online only.

  This means that all of our readers are now thanks to dropbox or something similar.

  A disc remained in my reader list.

  Initially, I had access to this hard drive, but could not edit the files and folders inside.

  Look, but don't touch.

  When the car started all the information on this drive was transferred to online readers AND an external hard drive.

  Which was not noticed immediately, was that some 150 file names were too long for each transfer.

  I still have access to these files.

  But when I try to open or to copy the files from the windows Explorer, it blocks.

  I tried to copy and paste, line of cmd, and several smart programs and I can't seem to get these files to copy, or even move.

  Copy / paste comes up with the error too long file name.

  I can however copy about 2 GB for other files without problem.

  The name of the file is certainly the question that all other files and folders can be copied to another drive.

  On the copy of the disc it comes up with the file name too long for these files.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated

• Identify too long to backup file names.

  Using Vista on my laptop and the complex file names are required because of the research that I do.

  When you run a regular backup to an external drive, I get an error message that some file names are too long for the files to copy, but no list of crime files is given.  I am informed to shorten them, but not how to identify them.
  Is there a quick way to find these files so that I can change the names?

  Hi John,.

  I just went to that link without problem using IE9 RC - but if you send you elsewhere to get the download, then maybe you'll have more success with the download page: http://www.parhelia-tools.com/products/pathscanner/Download.aspx.  It is the only near the top (or you can try the alternate).

  If specific filenames are not so long (assuming 260 is the number we need to worry and we are not quite sure of this), then it's probably the length of the path.  The path includes everything, like C:\Users\\Appdata\local\microsoft\temp\iooiee90939ntgngjoiga909ri4jt09049japgaopjgp\...\filename.doc and if this WHOLE thing is too long (260 or other), then it cannot copy or paste.  Chances are that these files were created by programs or automatically, not by you.

  My guess is that these are temporary files of IE (they tend to be very long) and if first delete you IE temporary files (Tools / Options / history / delete / don't check the Temp files and save them favorite boxes above, uncheck everything else for this test), then you find out that you don't really have the problem more.

  What is the external hard drive formatted in NTFS or FAT32 or FAT16?  If this isn't NTFS, I recommend that use the command convert to change to NTFS.  Not only is a better choice, but it can also solve this problem (although it's more a guess that based on specific research-, then it makes a difference with the size of the file and the file information, I saw say anything specifically made a difference in path length).  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Convert-a-hard-disk-or-partition-to-NTFS-format.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Downloaded a zipped file/folder would not, the name is too long.

  I have downloaded a compressed file/folder to a trusted site that I always. I unzipped the file (Music mp3) successfully and added to my itunes. When I tried to drag the file of music on my ipod, itunes shows his location could not be found. I went and checked on the folder I unzipped and all these other files with weird characters appears. It took 145 GB of space in my external hardrive (thank goodess). Now, I can't rename or delete the file or the folder itself. I tried a few removal tools but it did not work or when I try to download, my anti-virus software reports me. I need a way to get rid of the file. The budget is tight, so it would help if it's freeware. OR better yet a way to removed without having to download any software. I tried to delete it in safe mod and BACK. Without success. Tried Unlocker and D something software too.

  Have you tried Unlocker which would have been my first recommendation.  I don't know other programs (especially turned to the long name) free file deletion. If Unlocker doesn't work, or none will remove utilitly in Vista (because Unlocker is better than Vista).

  The commercial product ($19 I think) says that he specifically deletes files whose names are too long. http://www.abtollc.com/Folder-Delete.aspx.  I suspect that this will do the trick, but of course I can't be sure so try there is a risk that it will not solve the problem in spite of spending money on it.

  Your problem with the file may be a permissions problem.  Make sure that you have the permissions of all rights and take possession (and maybe both parent folders).  Don't forget to check the Advnaced properties for special permissions that restrict rights or inherit permissions from parent folders - you may need to remove if you already have all the rights on the main screen.  Here are the procedures:

  To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  You can change now switched to read-only (even if the main folder indicates that they are always read-only - you can access yourself as the owner).  You can keep them in read-only to other users, customers and administrators even (although they can support themselves and access, if they wish, and it is really not that you can do to stop it except protect the file with a password by using a 3rd party product.)  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

  I have no other suggestions at this point.  What is the EXACT and the full path of this folder?  Depending on where it is, we are able to create a new user profile (treat your as if it is corrupted) and traansfer all data EXCEPT the folder in the new profile.  Then delete the old provile if he leaves despite this file - it might or it might not (I'm not sure).

  To try this http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profileuse.  If that is the only available Administrator Profile (you need to be an administrator to fix this), enable the Hidden Administrator Account (HAA) using http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?&lang=en&cr=US&guid=&sloc=en-us&dg=microsoft.public.windows.vista.administration_accounts_passwords&p=1&tid=d20f9db4-7b2c-48be-a087-7835dc2a9055&mid=d20f9db4-7b2c-48be-a087-7835dc2a9055.  If you don't remember the password, try nothing because that's probably what you (or seller) did during the installation.  Once that is done, don't forget to disable the HAA to save it in case it is necessary once again and for safety reasons (since people often try to hack into systems using this account).  Do NOT use the HAA as your administrator account because if you lose the only administrator on the system account or it is damaged again, then you're watered.

  You can also try to enter in a command prompt: click on start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.  There Cd type a space and then type the path of the fulll name the folder in question (if it even appears).  Once inside the folder type del *. * and see what happens.  It can give you the same error message, or it can remove. Once the content is deleted type cd, and then type del (yes I know it's long) and enter. This can remove the folder.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
