how to disable questions when copying or moving

Post by *ilantech »

when i am copying large amount of data there is always the questions that pop up asking me if i want to keep files that have long file names or are inside of to many directory.
until that question pop i can not leave the copy overnight!

From the Help:

LongNameCopy=0 During file operations, warn if target name is longer than 259 characters:
0=always
1=never
2=if source name isn't longer than 259 characters
3=disallow long names
