support more than 256 character path length

files are not copied if the source path lenght exceeds 256 characters, even if the target path doesn't (at least I haven't figured out how to do it). That is a real niussance, because in such cases I have to individually handle such files.

I tried the solution, but it does not work. We are transitioning from an internal network server to SharePoint and exceeding the 256 characters is critical.

Hi, does your SharePoint version support long paths > 256 chars?
