Windows 10: the source and destination file names are the same

I get this message when trying burn files to a DVD using DVD as active storage. I can only choose Skip or Cancel. I've done both. When I move the DVD to another computer it doesn't show the files have been burned onto the DVD.

:)

 

Can't open or rename file (name is too long) WTF?

Thread necro...

When in doubt, use CMD.

1. Run CMD
2. Use CD <path> to navigate to the directory where the file exists.
3. Use the DIR command to get the list of files. DIR will likely abbreviate the ridiculously long named file with NAME~1.
4. Use the MOVE <source> <destination> to give the file a new name. For example: move "NAME~1" "MyShortName"
5. ...
6. PROFIT!

CMD is always the answer. *Wink

 

Robocopy Destination Naming Confusion

My command is:
Code:

Have I made an error again?

Earlier I tried to run a similar command as User.
It produced a destination file named “Documents”.

So I tried again as PS C:\WINDOWS\system32>
I got the same results on the destination side. “Documents.”

Thinking I had missed something I went to delete the destination “Documents” folder and try again.

At..Aare you sure you want to delete... the prompt showed the correct folder name "HP.Files."

So why is W10 changing my specified destination name in the properties and destination, and keeping it for the delete operation?

I still had the first User run on a different drive. Same problem: a conflict between the destination displayed name and the Properties name, and the name in the delete operation.

How can I get the right name to appear in the destination?

Everything else beside the name seems to working okay.

Thanks for any thoughts and suggestions.

 

Robocopy Destination Naming Confusion

I use a program with a GUI (Graphical User Interface) that does the same thing as RoboCopy. It's called FastCopy
FastCopy

If you go to the link, look at the picture at the right.
You got a Source folder, a Destination folder, and a drop down list that let's you copy and overwrite, or copy and only copy over the different items, etc...

Yet here are the options that I have to save data from one folder to another:
