I can use \\?\ just fine in VV but if I try to add that profile to VVEngine for automated backups it fails with a 'Folder not accessible' error. Thanks in advance |

I'd like to add that it fails to read the source folder. I can still use \\?\ for the target in VVEngine so;
\\?\nasdevice\users to \\?\F:\VisaVersa_Backup\nasdevice\users\ ~ FAILS
and
\\nasdevice\users to \\?\F:\VisaVersa_Backup\nasdevice\users\ ~ WORKS
The problem is if I use the option VVEngine seems to like it fails to backup anything deeper than 256 characters. |

UPDATE:
It seems to like;
\\?\UNC\nasdevice\users to \\?\F:\viceversa_backup\nasdevice\users
Waiting for backup to complete and I will report back any issues. |

UPDATE 2
Backup completed successfully, no skipped files due to the 256 character limit. I'm calling it done. Thanks for your time
