Have you even read my example, or any of my posts before ?
There is nothing wrong with COM API, paradoxically COM works ok
and handles long and short paths just fine.
It is the php itself that has problem with them.

I said short paths to *UNICODE* file names, windows has this feature that allows
apps that don't understand unicode to access these files and
all even old win311 programs and every scripting and programming
language I know can do that but not php.
