Shorten local OneDrive path to avoid windows path length limitations
When we set up OneDrive for business, we keep the same local path on every pc: c:\OneDrive Since our company name is quite long, every synced SharePoint will be somthing like: c:\OneDrive\veryvery...
The maxmimum path length has been increased (doubled) recently. Have you tried syncing in the last few weeks?
yes, today on a Windows 10 14393.1198 machine. Pathlengs somehow exceeded the limit.
Where should the limit be nowadays? Is the rollout global yet?
The max length is now around 400. From my own experience I can say that the max length in windows is more limiting.
I was unable to create this long path length directly in Windows, I had to create the folders and files in OneDrive after which they were properly synced.
