cached files with URL and filename > 260 characters issue and possible solution #4327
Closed
Description
I'm making a manifest for Microsoft Edge and I'm getting the filename too long problem.
The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.
URL http://msedge.f.tlu.dl.delivery.mp.microsoft.com/filestreamingservice/files/c6c3d5da-8cd4-4d17-a52d-9c1b4e9f4ff0?P1=1619294442&P2=404&P3=2&P4=W82qhGeOfF%2bacPu5vkB5FNoZKDucQJEnJ87E0P%2bMAYsiVsgr%2fsrFQA%2fnkdaAVPqIh6m%2b83hjYL%2fCtbpRhTCOXg%3d%3d#/dl.7z is not valid
I don't see anyway to make the URL shorter as this is the full URL, the problem is caused by the cache
dir that caches apps with $app $version $url
Is there any reason we actually need that URL there ? $app $version
should be enough I think ?
If not we can:
- add the hash instead of the url
- or make our own hash of
$app $version $url
Also I did enable the LongPathsEnabled
in the registry and I'm on Windows 10 2004, but this didn't fix the issue.
I'm now running a fork with only $app $version
in the cache
directory and it works fine.
Any thoughts?
(I can make a PR for this)
