I can not import a project from evolution 12 to 13. There was an error deleting the project. ??????? (The specified path, or filename or both are too long. The fully qualified filename must contain less than 260 characters and the folder name is less than 248 characters)
Both are not that long. One month ago, it was still possible to import the same project. Nothing changed except the number of pages.

Aad, are these pages simply added or on/in levels?
Are you using the default path to work on/save projects?
. . . and just because I am curious, why didn't you add the pages in V13??
Can you provide a link to the current site?

Esahc .. Pages have only been added. And as told before: nothing has changed.
Being curious is not bad ;-) Power of habit. I'm very used to V12. Wanted in V13 to try out new things.

Aad, could it be that there are actually faults in V12 causing the issue?
At random I went to this page and clicked a few links and frequently nothing happened. . .
This is possibly unrelated to the issue. . . .
As a test, can you export the project from V12, and assuming success, can you import it back into V12 (it will not overwrite the existing project).
If that works perhaps try import into V13 again.
If you do get it into V13, you can tweek the required bits so it is as you wish and at any time duplicate the project so you can experiment with new features without fear of damaging your current site project.
Can I assume you're doing all this export/import locally on a hard drive (not using external drives or USB sticks)?

This problem is not known to me, I hear that for the first time. For example, only at the j. This does not happen in preview mode.

I do everything through the internal hard drive
I'll try your solution to the problem. I'll tell you how it went.
Thank you so far for thinking about it.
Hello Aad,
Try to export the project from Version 12 without including the preview files and then test the import again.
Many thanks!

Great, all problems are solved with your solution. Also those of the j. Have no further problems.
Now one of the reasons I prefer to use the V12. V13 is much slower. Everything takes a very long time. So make the pages in V12 and reset them later to V13.
Thanks again for thinking about it.
