Pack & Go failed... Path is too long

Hello all,

I'm running into an error while trying to Pack & Go.
This morning I made a Pack & Go no problem but now when setting it to the same path or even to the root folder on a dive I get the error;
"Pack & Go failed.
Backup for IRB1200_7_70 failed: The Path is too long"

Any idea what could be causing this?
Cheers
Sam

  • I have since exported all of the programs and settings separately, created a new project and imported them.
    functioning properly now.
  • I experience the same problem. The target path is c:\temp\ so the path cannot be too long. My solution was to move the RS Project to a shorter path location as well. In this way the SOURCE and TARGET paths are short.
