Hi,
Anyone knows what does it mean to have "\\?\" at the beginning of paths?
For instance: \\?\E:\Folder1\Folder2\file.txt
Thanks

this is only required for deep paths(>255 characters), although it works for smaller paths too

I was just copying some files and found two of them were over 255. X2 works perfectly with them, but not the third party software.
Thanks for your confirmation!
