LFN (double-click) is broken*
path:len:>260, double-click -> 'The filename or extension is too long.'
(regression between 1264..1265)
*is broken - in MOST CASES
there are /some/ LFN which are still working in 1266
didn't figure out the criteria that makes one work & one not?

(separate)
I don't recall if LFN (right-click) is actually broken, or if it's the way it's always been?
Thinking it is the latter.
LFN (right-click) is broken
(i'm less sure if there is a regression here or not?)
(maybe there is not, maybe these never worked correctly ? & i'd just forgotten that they hadn't?)
LFN (right-click, SendTo) silently fails
LFN (right-click, Open with) is broken -> 'The filename or extension is too long.'

Re: LFN (double-click) is broken
Thanks for the feedback therube,
Everything 1.5.0.1267a fixes opening a single-selected file with a Long File Name (LFN).
LFN files may have worked previously when there was a short path available.
For most shell items, it will fail with the 'The filename or extension is too long.' message.
Some items are handled by Everything and should be fine, such as delete and rename.
Not much I can do here.
There's not much I can do to make Open With work for LFN files.

Depends on the context menu item selected.I don't recall if LFN (right-click) is actually broken, or if it's the way it's always been?

Re: LFN (double-click) is broken
Heh. I just realized that yesterday. I you saved me the trouble (& said it better).fixes opening a single-selected file with a Long File Name (LFN).

(My way:)
Code: Select all
SFN name.part, SFN path.part, but LFN path+name
232, 33, 265 = BROKEN double-click
> but... if you've selected 2 files instead of 1...
SFN name.part, SFN path.part, but LFN path+name
232, 33, 265 = BROKEN double-click
232, 21, 253 = OK
> AND, using those *2* files (or even more),
> then 'SendTo' works
> & 'Open' works
(not sure about 'Open with' ?)
