XYplorer Beta Club
Hi Don,
when I move a file from one overlong location path to another overlong location path via drag & drop (I only consciously tested it with two overlong paths), it seems that XY converts the file name to the "short path" version, saving the file name in the new location in the "shortened" form - and also - changing a .docx extension to a .DOC extension.
When I move the same file from and to the same locations via Ctrl+x and Ctrl+v, then this does not happen, but all behaves normal.
XYplorer Version: v28.10.0307
Windows Version: Win 11
Screen Scaling Percentage: 100
regards, auto

Please include the following information:
1) Your XYplorer Version (e.g., v28.00.0801)
2) Your Windows Version (e.g., Win 11)
3) Your Screen Scaling Percentage (e.g., 125%).
We strongly recommend adding your Windows Version and Screen Scaling Percentage to the Location field in your Profile or to your Signature. That way, you only have to type them once, and we won't have to search for that vital information.

Not here. Can you give a more specific example (full paths and filenames)?
