Yes, it currently auto-cuts the path per 0016505 But you are true that it mixes the last directory and filename together (without adding path separator in between). => Fixed in 5.0.2.2500 As for the inability to disable the auto-cut: I guess we could add an option for this in the Auto-orgnanize dialog below the '[x] Delete empties folders' ? i.e. something like [x] Auto-cut long paths/filenames Assigned to Rusty for wording suggestions. |

Why does it auto-cut if MediaMonkey and Windows support longer file Paths? |

Why does it auto-cut if MediaMonkey and Windows support longer file Paths? MediaMonkey and Windows supports the longer path by prepending with '\\?\' , but not all apps supports such a paths (including MM4) so the option is needed and I think it should be enabled by default. BTW: User at https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=484120#p484120 would like this option (to be able to disable the auto cut-off) |

Suggested text (probably disabled by default?): [ ] Trim long paths/filenames Tooltip: Shorten paths/filenames to 256 characters for compatibility with certain apps Note: - the suggested text may be inaccurate re. the number of characters - keep in mind that this needs to be enabled for background auto-organize as well |

I added the checkbox in build 5.0.2.2501 But left it enabled by default (to trim the long paths) as the long paths have not been well tested + are not supported by older apps (e.g. Total Commander fails to work with them). |

When using a long filename a \\?\ is added in front of the Path in Auto-Organize |

I can't replicate, but trying to figure out how this can happen tomorrow... EDIT: I can't figure out how to replicate and also by analyzing the code I don't see where //?/ prefix could be added. Could you please generate debug log for me? EDIT2: Assigned back to me, I just see something... |

Fixed in 2519 |

Verified on 2519 that \\?\ isn't added on long filenames |

NOTE that \\?\ is normal NTFS command to force Long paths up to 65535 Characters. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/fileapi/nf-fileapi-getfullpathnamew |
