The person was running Windows 11. I sent a detailed article about it to them as well (with some thousands of words), but in the end they even found it easier to just boot into Linux and delete it.
Look man I don’t really run windows anymore. I’m no longer a l33t power user like yourself. I found some microsoft learning bullshit article and sent it over because I didn’t have an agenda to make them use Linux or anything.
If you want to apologize for a system that still has problems like this in 2023, feel free to waste your time. I’ll be here not having these 1990s problems on the regular because I don’t run this pile of crap anymore except on my gaming computer.
Oh yeah no I missread what you wrote. That article is ridiculous, which is about as good as any other microsoft made article for windows.
It also doesn’t tell you how to actually resolve file names being too long either. Which is what I meant is a simpleish fix. It’s one edit in registry.
