Re: Problem with long file names

I installed Cryptomator with chocolatey, so it didn't include WinFSP and the vault defaulted to opening with WebDAV. That's what made file paths display as too long for explorer/FFS.

Re: Problem with long file names


when I move that file with the same folder structure into my Cryptomator vault that's when I get the error
Just what is the directory structure?
But I used 12.3 for years and I've never had this issue with older versions of FreeFileSync.
So 12.3 worked (before) & now 12.3 (also) fails.

Found the issue, it was Cryptomator after all.

Re: Problem with long file names

Reverted back to 12.3 and I still have the same issue.

Noticed something though. Windows explorer opens the file fine (about 100 chars in path so that's expected), but when I move that file with the same folder structure into my Cryptomator vault that's when I get the error.

This happens whether ...

Problem with long file names

I get the following error:

Cannot read directory "[97_character_file_name]".

ERROR_FILENAME_EXCED_RANGE: The filename or extension is too long. [FindNextFile]

Im trying to copy into a mounted cryptomator vault if that makes any difference. But windows explorer is able to handle the files fine.
