:)I am using Windows XP, I am needing to enable long pathnames but I am not able to locate the setting to enable it. Where would this setting be located and what would the name of the setting be?

Thank you all for any information provided.
I am new to posting so forgive me if this is long.

No, actually it is too short.;D

We might need some more information. What exactly do you mean by "long pathnames"?

I was trying to install norton antivirus, when an error popped up stating, that I needed to enable long pathnames in order to finish installation.

This is on a PC with windows xp pro.

However, I have since went back to avg6 for my antivirus needs.

Any information for the long pathname problem would provide for future reference.

Thank you!

Hi, the link given by psi42 is right. I am sure it will work as many others whom I know were able to solve the issue.
