Summary0000943: Please support paths longer than 259 chars on Windows
DescriptionCurrently it is impossible on Windows to enter a directory, or operate on a file or directory that has a path longer than 259 characters. This is a limitation in some Windows APIs, but it should be possible to work around it. Please see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365247(v=vs.85).aspx#maxpath

TC works around this, while it displays a warning to the user:
‘The target name length (<LENGTH>) is more than 259 characters! <PATH> Most programs will not be able to access a file/directory with such a long name!’

And offers two options: Keep name, or Abort.

In file operations like copying, it also offers: Keep all, Skip, Skip all and Rename on the same dialog. (Rename is pretty silly, please ignore it.)
TagsNo tags attached.
