How to stop the "Open Overlong Items?" dialog box?

[Panos Kouvelis]

Hello everybody, hope you have a good day!

Is there a way to stop the "Open Overlong Items?" dialog box from appearing every time I try to open such an item?

I already configured my operating system and it can handle items with long paths and filenames, and all my applications are either 64bit or have manifest capabilities, so they can open such items with no issues.

I just keep getting this dialog box every time I try to open that kind of file.

Is there an option to select to not see this dialog box?

Thank you in advance for your time and help!

Hello patrida

Probably you've already tried it but i'll mention it just in case you didn't.

Open the Xyplorer configuration and select from the left: "Controls & more" then in the right side under "Miscellaneous" check the box that says "support overlong filenames"

I hope it helps

There is a special tweak to skip that prompt:

Code: Select all

OpenOverlongNoConfirm=1

I am having the same issue. I've done the Configuration file tweak and still getting the annoying popup.
I've also done this suggestion: Open the Xyplorer configuration and select from the left: "Controls & more" then in the right side under "Miscellaneous" check the box that says "support overlong filenames"
Any other ideas on how to fix this?

Execute this from the addressbar and show a screenshot of that output window:

echo getkey("OpenOverlongNoConfirm", "Settings");

Hello patrida

Hey, Hello!! Sorry for the very late reply, was very busy :-)

I tried this before posting, but as others mentioned it didn't work.

Execute this from the addressbar and show a screenshot of that output window:

echo getkey("OpenOverlongNoConfirm", "Settings");

I tried setting the .ini file variable to 1, it seems that it doesn't work.

Here's my config file:



And here's the echo return:



Any ideas?
