ViceVersa PRO 3 Build 3003 Support for long paths

[wbrandle]

I was under the impression that ViceVersa PRO 3 Build 3003 has support for long paths > 260 chars without using the \\?\ prefix. I just purchased and installed the new 3003 but I can not find "Enable NTFS long paths' in the profile settings as forums would suggest. Can you tell me where to find this new setting?

Hi William,

please see: https://www.tgrmn.com/web/kb/item31.htm

The support for long paths needs to be activated in Windows itself.

thanks

Then I guess I was a bit mislead. From a previous forum post I submitted, I was left with the impression with the new version would no longer require using the \\?\ in the path with the latest version which I bought because of that very reason. I have never been able to successfully get the \\?\ to work so I guess even after purchasing the upgrade I am in the same boat in which I stared I started with.

Hi, which version of Windows are you using?
What are the source and target folder you want to use in ViceVersa?
thanks

Thanks, on Windows Server 2012 you would still need to use \\?\ for long paths in ViceVersa.
