Hello all, I’m running into an error while trying to Pack & Go. This morning I made a Pack & Go no problem but now when setting it to the same path or even to the root folder on a dive I get the error; “Pack & Go failed. Backup for IRB1200\_7\_70 failed: The Path is too long” Any idea what could be causing this? Cheers Sam ---

I have since exported all of the programs and settings separately, created a new project and imported them. functioning properly now. ---

I experience the same problem. The target path is c:\temp\ so the path cannot be too long. My solution was to move the RS Project to a shorter path location as well. In this way the SOURCE and TARGET paths are short.
