sort filenames by length?

I'm having a problem with Foldershare syncing files, saying there is a file that is too long to sync. But it doesn't tell me which file.

is there any way to use cmd or the new explorer to sort filenames by length?

thanks!

Hi, and welcome to the forums. :party:

Unfortunately, as far as I am aware, filenames can only be sorted alphabetically. For example, the title of this thread, 'sort filenames by length' would be sorted as follows: 'by filenames length sort'. Another example, this time words of varying length beginning with the same letter: 'who what where when why which' > 'what when where which who why'.

Hi SaveSheep,

Just sort the files by name, usually its a file using "Special" unsupported characters or has too many letters also A maximum of ten folders or "libraries" may by synced including libraries shared over the internet. Each library can contain a maximum of 10,000 files.
