copy with long file path issues

[Kaizen]

We all run into the issue when copying files where we get a failure do to a to long of a file path. We always seem to waste to much time manually trying to make sort this out. Are there any methods that can make this process faster or automatic?

it looks like robocopy may work(based on some googling). I am not sure how it could get around max file path limitiaitons

7-zip gui will copy files with long names

I believe Teracopy will do it as well.

Do these programs truncate the names?

I don't think teracopy truncates, but it will handle file names and paths greater than 256 characters.
Its free, give it a try.
