Copying many files-paths to cmd line = Access Violation

Post by *artrgee »

While building a list of files using the command line (drag with shift for included path) an Access Violation was generated. This occurs somewhere between 225 and 275 characters, well below XP's operating system limit of about 8000.

I was copying paths of about 55 characters in length and the fifth set did it. After "Yes" to continue execution the drive combo boxes do not work, but all the copied characters are available on the command line. This does not happen when characters are pasted to the command line from the clipboard. It happens when copying file-with-path, also with paths using "HTTP Browser".

I use this method to build lists for "FTP Download From List..." Usually I do two to four files, but this time I needed sixteen.

Confirmed!

Different error addresses. But always the same for the same files.
May be binary representation of ascii character codes?
The first one "4649" was a file with an extension ".GIF" (reverse FI!)
The last one "5353" was a file with an extension ".CSS".

Code: Select all

Access violation at address 00004649. Write of address 00004649.
Access violation at address 00500066. Read of address 69672E6A.
Access violation at address 00005353. Write of address 00005353.
Vista Ultimate / TC 7.04a
