Long file name problem: copied to external drive but can't copy back
I just finished replacing my motherboard/CPU and a few drives and re-installed Win10 in the process. I backed up the data on the drives to USB drives and had no issues. But now I can't copy the data off the external drive because of the "File name too long" error.
I've tried the approaches described here but they didn't work: Win32 Long Paths - Enable or Disable in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Tutorials
I never did the changes described in the link before I did the re-install of Win10.
How do I copy the data off the external drive?
Thanks in advance,
