I'm trying to transfer a bunch of documents to a new computer and these errors related to the file path being too long keep stacking up.
"The file name(s) would be too long for the destination folder. You can shorten the file name and try again, or try a location that has a shorter path."
Then the only options are 'skip' or 'cancel'.
I don't want to manually rename hundreds of files.
Apparently there is a 259 character limit which seems ridiculous.
If I upgrade to Windows 10 and then do the transfer would that alleviate the issue?
Is there some software the automatically shortens file paths or something?
