Hi
New here.....!
how do i search for files that have filenames [paths] greater than 260 chars ?
I know you can highlight them but it means finding them in the first place.
Thanks

I don't understand... You just search for them like for any other file?
Or do you mean that one segment of the path exceeds 255 chars? Even a lot of Windows API functions fail on such parts...
Even when used with the \\?\ prefix...
Configuration | General | Controls and More | Miscellaneous | [x] Support overlong filenames
needs to be checked ofc

If I am understanding you properly you should just be able to input this in the address bar:
in the root of the location you want to search.
