255 character limitation path

[marekjs]

Hello guys,

I'm not sure, but is there any way to skip the 255 character length limitation, to operate long name files, or heavy tree please?
I was on the external tool to rename, delete etc.
I appreciate any help...

Cheers...

TC itself does not have such limitation.
The maximum supported by TC is 1022 characters for the whole path.
Just the name is limited to 256 characters (the maximum supported by NTFS).
Note that nevertheless several other applications (e.g. Windows Recycle bin) cannot handle those long names!

You should clarify what exactly you mean.
There is only the mentioned limit of 255 characters to file and dir/folder names,
and second, which is probably what you mean, that old MAX_PATH limit of 260 characters to a path.
Many applications still have that latter limit.
So, although TC supports > MAX_PATH since 7.50, handing over a path to an application you start from TC might fail, if the app itself doesn't support such a long path.

the maximum supported by NTFS

Not really because of NTFS, basically the limit in any file system.
