Hi John,<br />
<br />
you're a regular insider build tester? Perhaps I will ask you once more later this year of in the beginning of 2018.<br />
<br />
I'll keep the post open for some time, hoping on more info.

There is nothing within the immediate horizon. I start my Insider machine up once or twice a week to get new builds.

you can get around this for migrations by creating links to shorten the paths or using poqershell to do your file copy operations

Great stuff John, so I guess I'll have to be patient then and need RoboCopy to get around that long path problem.<br />
<br />
Thank you,

Hello Ben,<br />

Hi all,<br />
<br />
I am having many problems with the path limit of Microsoft OS's up till now. I have read this article:<br />

<br />
Often I need to do data migrations and so on, running into long path problems. Also regular users meet this problem from time till time, more than ever.<br />
<br />
Anyone any idea when this feature is actually going to be released?

Anyone any idea when this feature is actually going to be released?

When is Microsoft going to resolve the long path limit of 260 characters?
