Windows Vista / Windows 7 /Windows Server 2008: Path limit is 248 characters. Path+Filename limit is 260 characters
Windows xp /2003: Path+Filename limit is 255 characters Windows 2000: Path+Filename limit is 254 Characters -----Original Message----- From: Kurt Buff [mailto:kurt.b...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2010 4:00 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Idle question? Does anyone have experience with Win7 and really long file/path specifications- that is, beyond 254 characters? The Win32 API doesn't support longer than that, and I was wondering if it was fixed with Win7. If the problem is fixed for Win7, will I have to move my file server to Win2k8 to take advantage of the increased length?
