Hey,
I've been trying to transfer my mums files from her old computer that died to her new one, however I've been finding that windows can't copy several of the folders, with the error 'Cannot copy file:' and that's all. After a bit of investigation I've discovered my mum likes places folders within folders within folders, resulting a rediculously complex folder system. I think this is what is tripping windows up, it doesn't like files that are 15 folders deep (seriously!). It won't let me copy the deepest files because the filename is too long, anyone know of any software that could handle it?
