How To Fix ‘Filename Is Too Long’ Issue In Windows

**Daanpeterson** · #1 April 5th 22, 10:30 AM

Hello,
If you’ve ever seen this issue, it was probably a simple fix for you. If you’ve seen this error more than twice, then you also know that it can be a complex issue to fix sometimes.
Let’s hope you only run into the easy fix variety, but we’ll prepare you for the less easy, guaranteed to work fixes too.
So, There is problem solve in windows if you can using longpathtool.
Thanks!

more information, this will not increase the filename limit. On Windows, you can still have a file with a filename of up to 255-260 characters. However, the path to that file can be greater than 260 characters.
