    I keep getting this message while scanning - Scandisk found an invalid long name file and could not fix it. To fix run scandisk for windows.

    How do I identify the file and go about deleting it? Help.

    Long Filename Finder (by DCSoft)
    Version 1.1
    http://www.dcsoft.com

    Depending on your OS, some LOOOOOONG filenames are not welcome and appreciated. I had the same problem on W98SE and I search and reduce all filenames at max 45 caracters by renaming them (those I knew I can). And it worked well.
    I live about 3 months with that little problem, so you don't have to worry meanwhile :)

    I managed to rename the file.

    Now I am having IE problems. Microsoft says there is no solution right at the moment.
