You copy from a location to another location and got error as describe as following message and picture:
The file name(s) would be too long for the destination folder….
I got the error on my Windows 7, SP1. Of course, you can have the same issue on Windows 8.
I use Windows Explorer to try to copy files or folders in order to paste them into some other folder.
There is a solution and explain already by Microsoft on the support that the problem occurs because of an issue in how Windows handles the long-path errors.
