Hi, you will need to prefix your source, target and/or archive folders (depending on to where you want to enable long path support) with the \\?\ prefix.

Examples:
c:\folder\ becomes \\?\c:\folder\
c:\ becomes \\?\c:\

For network UNC paths, the prefix to use is \\?\unc\

Examples:
\\server\folders becomes \\?\unc\server\folders\ not \\?\server\folders\ (3 extra 'unc' characters are added after \\?\)
