The binaries provided here do not yet contain this functionality, but a release, see #356, is on the way. In the meantime you can take my binaries.
No, I didn't download the source.
Unfortunately the result was the same.

Have you tried my binaries ? Added the registry key as admin?
If it is not working, please report in detail what are trying to do:
Are you comparing the length of the new name with MAX_PATH(260) in the rename (F2) operation?
No.
Please provide a description what you are trying to do by following the instructions in my last comment.
I looked at #356 and looked it up. "Visual C++ Redistributable" in my environment is 2010(2021-10), 2013(2022-1), 2015(2021-9, install). Doesn't this matter to you?
NTFS suports path + filename up to 32767 utf-16 characters, but each individual component (subfolder/final-file) has a limit of 255 utf-16 characters
Winfile supports path + filename up to 1024 utf-16 characters. You are trying to create a single file with more than 256 characters, which violates the general NTFS limitation above. Winfile and no other tool can overcome this.
A small test to prove that Winfile works with long path up to 1024 utf-16 characters according the NTFS spec can be found here
I got it
@craigwims: please close
I'm looking for a rescue tool for the "long path" error.
1) I tried renaming the file with Winfile to create a longer path, but it truncates it to 259 characters. 2) If the path becomes long (more than 259) with copy & paste, an error will occur.
Are there any setting items other than the above registry settings?
Environment: Windows 10 Pro 22H2, WinFile 10.1.4.0
