The cost, time and effort of replacing your old software with new software that supports long filenames just isn't worth it. Often replacement software is not available. Now you don't have to replace it! With LFNit's help, you can retain long filename support even while using your:
You simply run LFNit! in the affected folder before you use the old software (or run
it on the entire drive at boot time), run the old program, and then run the batch file
created by LFNit! to restore the long filenames. What could be simpler?
For example, if you use an old tape backup program to backup your system, it will not
retain long filename information. With LFNit!, you just run it on the drive or folders
being backed up, and then perform the backup (including the batch file created by LFNit!).
At restore time, just run the batch file (LFNrenew.bat) created by LFNit!
