How can I make Windows XP accept very long file names
(files within extremely nested folders or files with just
long names). Right-clicking files with very long names
produces an error and all open folders must close.
Actually, that problem in Windows 98 was the last straw
that made me upgrade to XP (Professional). It is such a
trivial problem that my stomach churns from astonishment
when I experience it.
Why do I need long file names?
-Because I need the extra organizational structure it
gives me.
-Because I have the professional edition.
-Because I don't care about the old apps that can't
handle it.
-Because it restrains me and my creativity!
How can I fix it? Please.
Note that I'm talking about file names approximately 300
characters or more, not 1 million or more.
