    OpenFileDialog raises a "file not found" error when the scenario is of a long path


    Hello,

    I'm working on an enterprise desktop tool developing on Visual Studio using C# wherein for one of our features we need for the fileopendialog to accept more than the standard 260 character limit set by Microsoft. I've looked up multiple solutions but in most cases they have a way to tune this for just a single system or a group but this is a tool given to various clients and we would like to ensure it works for them as well.

    Could someone please assist with this or redirect me to the right support group?

    Thank you for the help!

    Regards,
    Nitya

    :)

    Is it risky to enable long file paths on Windows 10?

    Windows 10 has an option to allow for longer file paths (background). Is it risky to enable this option?

    I ask because I've heard mixed comments about how there can be bugs related to long file names.

    From a recent (2016-07-30) MSDN blog post:

    • A comment:

    • The response:


    Another question on SuperUser (2016-08-17) seems to suggest that there're known issues.

    Question: Does enabling long file paths increase the risk of file loss or corruption on Windows 10?
