|
|
I cannot find the correct syntax to enable back-up of files with a long path.
I use generally the syntax:
Code: | D:\Folder\ <to> \\NAS\Folder\ |
to make back-ups to a NAS device
For long paths the Help tells me to add in front the text: "\\?\".
\\?\D:\Folder\ works allright, but \\?\NAS\Folder\ as well as \\?\\NAS\Folder\ are not accepted. What is the correct syntax? |

Hi
the path of the folder is long that is why it is creating problem, long path tool can also be used to solve your problem.
