Hello,
I need help regarding opening files stored under long path (exceeding 260 characters). I am using Windows 10, with long paths enabled. It is possible to open the file over LibreOffice Open dialog and even in a batch file (.bat that runs soffise.exe -o “long path\file.odt”).
However, when I click the document itself in the Total Commander, the LibreOffice seems to start, splash screen appears, but then it shuts down, or probably crashes. If i click the document with path under MAX_PATH, it just opens correctly. Is there a workaround for this?
Thank you for your help!
Try to take a capture of what Total Commander passes to soffice as argument. I suppose TC is not aware of long paths.
LibreOffice starting then silently closing is normal behaviour when it’s run with path to not-existing file.
It works fine with Notepad and with PDF-XChange from Total Commander. So I think TC is OK.
Now I can see it. Windows adds “\?” UNC prefix to the path, which is not recognized by LibreOffice…
Unfortunately no response with filed bug #.
