    ! Opening Overlong Items: Did not work reliably even with "Configuration | General | 
      Controls & More | Miscellaneous | Support overlong filenames" enabled. Fixed.
    ! Deleting Overlong Items: Turns out that the shell cannot deal with a 255-character 
      path in the drive root although this length should be totally legal according to the 
      docs. If such a beast somehow ends up in the Recycle Bin, which is possible in 
      Win8.1 but not in Win11, then the attempt to restore it will crash XYplorer and File 
      Explorer without mercy or questions. Actually it seems that the max length the shell 
      can handle for root paths is only X:\+245 characters.
      Fixed. Now XYplorer will prompt you to permanently delete such an item. It won't end 
      up in the recycler.

      not greyed out so easily by clipboard stuff that only the shell can handle.
    ! Drag and Drop: Crash possible when dragging overlong items (> 259 characters in the

    * Configuration | Colors and Styles | Color Filters | Draw background colors as wide 
      as the column: This setting now controls the width of background colors *independently* 
      of the "Configuration | General | Menus, Mouse, and Usability | Mouse | Full Name 
      Column Select" setting. In other words: You can now have color filters just as wide 
      as the caption while "Full Name Column Select" is enabled. This makes the 
      distinction between a color filter and a selection rectangle clearer.
      If a background-color-filtered file is selected you still see a bit of the color 
      filter to the right of the selection rectangle.
