Windows 10: Some files would not open in the 14-level directory

On my PC, I have Win10 most current. In the Documents, I have a directory with 14-level subdirectories. In the lowest subdirectory, I have PDF and JPG files. The image files open normally in the Photo applet. The PDF files in this subdirectory would not open in the Adobe DC Reader. However, when I moved these PDF files to the desktop, they opened in the Reader. My guess is that the "long file name" is the culprit.

How can I work around this? I really need to keep this directory multi-leveled.

Directory Size Utility

First of all nice utility, Mindweaver!
Second of all, it's so nice to see that this section ain't dead.

I have a few questions/suggestions, maybe you'd want to see ...

• maybe you rename Get Folder button caption to something more intuitive? Add Folder, Get Folder Size, Check Folder Size or something like that?
  
• Could you add subfolder files to the right pane? (it can be a tickbox with include sub dirs)
  
• maybe you also add export list to excel?
  
• there's delete file button maybe you add delete folder button too?
  
• and finally maybe you can add UP button for directories?

 

Directory Size Utility

Thanks buddy! Yea, this section's not dead. Kreij and I have big plans for this section. I don't want to give nothing away, but we have some bigger projects down the road. *Toast :toast: I feel I'm pretty good at coding with different languages, but I'm well behind Kreij's level of experience with those other Languages. I've been working on those other languages, and soon I'll feel comfortable enough to start, and not feel like I'm holding the project back. *Toast :toast:

Now on to your suggestions.

• maybe you rename Get Folder button caption to something more intuitive? Add Folder, Get Folder Size, Check Folder Size or something like that? Yea, that's been bothering me and I like your suggestion "Add Folder". I'll change it on the next release.
  
• Could you add subfolder files to the right pane? (it can be a tickbox with include sub dirs) I could add this, but let me see if I understand what you're asking. By subfolders you mean add all the folders in the left panel to the right panel? Those folders are all the subfolders in the "Get folder".
  
• maybe you also add export list to excel? I'll add this on the next release.
  
• there's delete file button maybe you add delete folder button too? I'll add this on the next release.
  
• and finally maybe you can add UP button for directories? I'll add this on the next release.

These are all great suggestions! Thanks Drone! *Toast :toast:
