3.8.1. Displaying Long File Names
Since Windows 95 OS launch filename is not limited to 8.3 patterns
and can have a length of up to 255 characters.
Standard View displays all files and folders the same way as DOS
does, i.e. in 8.3 formats. However sometimes it is not convenient to
see only first symbols of the long file name.
To display long filenames (up to 36 symbols):
- Boot in DOS mode and run Active@ UNERASER
- Scan the particular drive by pressing [Enter].
- Press the [Tab] key to switch to long filenames view (Figure 17)
Figure 3-17 Long file names display

(!) Note: UNERASER
supports the only display of long filenames, however if you try to
copy/unerase them, they will be stored in 8.3 format, because standard
DOS writing functions do not have support for long filenames.
