In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to enable or disable Win32 long paths in Windows 11. If you're encountering issues with path length restrictions, follow these simple steps to configure the settings for long paths.
Windows 10 and 11 have a default 260-character path limit, which can cause errors like "The file name(s) would be too long for the destination folder." While this isn’t an issue for most users, those with longer file names may find it problematic.
To fix this, you can enable Win32 Long Paths. This allows compatible Win32 and Windows Store applications to access file paths beyond the 260-character limit on supported file systems. If you’re struggling with this restriction, this guide will show you how to enable it.
