I guess I'm the only VV user who has trouble with 259+ file names . . .

I've tried many permutations of the instructions here but nothing works for me.

This is my source and target setup. What characters/syntax should I be using?

I'm using v3.3001

Source: \\192.168.0.69\Public\
Target: \\qnapnas\Public\Backup of Drobo\

Thanks, thanks.

I'd say :

\\?\UNC\192.168.0.69\Public
\\?\UNC\qnapnas\Public\Backup of Drobo

try that or wait for VV Forum Staff to confirm.

Hi, this is correct, see also https://www.tgrmn.com/web/kb/item31.htm

\\?\UNC\ is used literally to prefix UNC paths while just \\?\ for local disk paths.
