I can recommend three solutions: (if the path is too long) First copy the folder to upper levels in windows explorer and then move it to your local computer (if file names are too long) First try to zip/rar/7z them with an archive application and then copy the archive file to your local computer and then extract the contents. Use third party apps. All of these suggestions assume you have some sort of write access on the network shared folder/computer. If you can't do any of these then you might need help from your administrator. share|improve this answer answered Nov 30 '10 at 14:08 Gani Simsek 2,1521116 6
