Just started moving (copying, pasting etc) a few things around on my file server:
Ideas?

Re: This is new...
Only happened this one time and I have not had the exact situation to retest.
The activity was on a Windows 2022 server BTW. Did not think I was exceeding a 256 char filepath but I suppose anything is possible.
If it occurs again - I will circle back.
Also - on a general user friendless note - if this error actually IS due to an extremely long filepath - maybe consider having XY post a message that is easy to understand. As it stands - this is a message only a developer could love (or make any sense of).

Re: This is new...
The error messages have two audiences: me and you (in that order). Sometimes hard to hit the sweet spot.
Two things on "Out of string space":
1) Has nothing to do with file name length
2) Has often nothing to do with anything. It likes to come when the error handling itself got broken.

Re: This is new...
Understood. Just would be nice to know what is going on without needing to resort to asking more questions.
Makes sense - because even after this error came up a few times - whatever I was doing - still got done. It was not like XY did not complete the task.
Like I said - this app is golden when it comes to stability. But every so often - I see things like this.
No biggie.
Cheers!
