Hello
Wanted to copy the filenames of 39 files but looks like PathCopyCopy can only copy no more than 10 filenames in one go.
I'm on Win 10 and I sometimes copy filenames for dozens if not hundreds of files and was using another program which didn't have this kind of limitation.
edit: Forgot to add that Path for all the 39 files can be copy/pasted without problems.
@clechasseur commented on GitHub (Apr 9, 2025):
This sounds like an old bug rearing its head, since there's a weird limitation to how many paths get passed to the contextual menu extension and I had to do a workaround to be able to copy more than 10 paths. The command you're using shouldn't matter however. Were you trying to copy the filenames in Windows Explorer, or elsewhere (like in an Open or Save dialog box)? Were you using the regular Copy Long Path command, or a custom one?
(I'm sorry for the late reply, this one went under my radar)
@JustALooker666 commented on GitHub (Apr 15, 2025):
Thanks for your reply.
I always copy filenames in Win Explorer and enabled only these commands:
Copy Long Name
Copy Long Path
Copy Long Parent Folder Path (submenu)
@clechasseur commented on GitHub (Apr 18, 2025):
I must admit I was not able to reproduce the problem you're having. I can copy more than 10 filenames in Windows Explorer using Copy Long Name. However I am now on Windows 11 so there might be a difference.
Are you trying to copy the name of the same files you can successfully copy the path of?
@JustALooker666 commented on GitHub (Apr 21, 2025):
Well, it works on Win10, too if I enable "Always show submenu" then click on Path Copy --> Name.
Doesn't work if I just click Copy Name (menu). As I said, Copy Path works from menu without any problems.
@clechasseur commented on GitHub (Apr 27, 2025):
I must admit I have not been able to reproduce this at all. Unfortunately I am no longer on Windows 10 so I can't test it there... I'll try to see if I can find a Windows 10 machine.
Just be to be 100% sure: you are running the latest version (20.0), correct?
@JustALooker666 commented on GitHub (Apr 27, 2025):
Yes, I'm using the latest version.
I find it odd too as I can copy 10+ filenames only from submenu (2 clicks instead of 1)
@JustALooker666 commented on GitHub (Sep 28, 2025):
btw using Win11 now and still having the same problem
@ToniMa1 commented on GitHub (Nov 26, 2025):
Working for me with version 20.0 with way more than 10 elements.
i also installed under win10 but got upgraded recently to win11.
(btw: a better integration on new windows explorer context menu would be appretiated... maybe i create a issue for that)
@clechasseur commented on GitHub (Jan 6, 2026):
@ToniMa1 Sorry for the late reply, but there is already a ticket for Windows 11 contextual menu support: #169 .
@JustALooker666 I really can't reproduce this unfortunately. I will keep this open as it is really puzzling.
