Hello,
I have recently changed my laptop OS from Linux RHEL 6.4 to Windows 7. Before changing the OS, I have copied all my data (abt 40+ GB) into an external USB drive. When I tried to restore the backup files into the Win7 laptop, it gives an error viz : Filename
too long, file path too long, exceeded 256 characters, etc. I have many folders and files to move and will not be able to manually shorten every file name.
Is there any way/tool from Microsoft, thru which I can seamlessly transfer from my USB HDD to Local drive ????
~I am the administrator user on the laptop.
==============
Note: After going thru a couple of blogs, I have used the Robocopy which is inbuilt in Win7 and was able to succeed to a greater extent...but not 100%. There are few files which has been skipped by the command ( as per the copy summary, see attached)
and I am unable identify those exact files which are missed, so that I can manually located them on my USB HDD and copy to the local system. Is there an way to locate those missing files ???
