Filename too long error in SharePoint
MS SharePoint is a Web application comprising a set of diverse Web technologies utilized by multiple organizations which possess common infrastructure. It embraces an integrated suite of server capabilities such as Intranet support, extranet access, provides information sharing and content management within the organization.
But in spite of the MS SharePoint advantages, sometimes you can face “The specified file or folder name is too long” error message while creating a new document in SharePoint library or making a new folder.
When you copy a folder or file that exceeds the limit of 260 characters for the complete path and 128 characters for each single file or folder, SharePoint displays an error saying that current path is too long and this element cannot be created in the destination SharePoint.
