onedrive: The data area passed to a system call is too small
hi, We are getting some odd errors in onedrive for business where files/paths seems longer that 255. one issue is the error when opening The data area passed to a system call is too small ...
Don't even try. You're just moving the point of failure to somewhere else in the OneDrive ecosystem e.g. a user tries to sync on another device with a regular path length tolerance. Data corruption/loss will follow.
I do understand that and will get the user to shorten. so we dont have to end up with other devices that cant open it.
however, is there no fix to this or is it AS IS

Suleyman Ali you need to work within the published limits. Cloud storage may sync with a variety of devices and browser/operating system platforms, so there are many constraints on what will work reliably.
