      But seriously anyone know of any tools that can shorten a network path name? And not just in a terminal, but the physical path name.

      E:\dsfbgsdfg\2314312363456\sdfgwesd\2011\452345\2011a\32452345 wsdfgbvw\23452345\

      to

      E:\dsfbg\2314. . . . . .

      Please tell me that some of that actually makes sense to you. Orders? Invoices? Customer #'s? Don't have to explain it to me. Just tell me you understand it.

      Pretty sure that's just gibberish.

      Yeah just gibberish.

        Have you considered a naming convention of some sort for your file servers and locking it down?

          @NerdyDad Yeah . . . . only been at the new job a month.

          This is just a trouble issue as I'm trying to archive things from past years and the user base here has been allowed to do whatever they want.

            That makes sense. Sounds like its time to reign it in.

                  @momurda Seriously, I helped a kid in Texas via TeamViewer to be able to mount a drive inside of ESXi.

                  He had no clue, but had hundreds of VM's he was "in charge of".

                  I could've screwed him over royally if I wasn't such a nice guy.

                        Contemplating the fact that the only real downside to being bald is I have no hair to pull out when I am frustrated.

                                  Shampoo can be used on more than just your head . .

                                    As I suspected: restore failed. The error message was curious.

                                    From: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/filecab/2007/06/22/common-causes-and-solutions-to-backup-system-restore-and-complete-pc-backup-problems/

                                    The parameter is incorrect. (0x80070057) -- This error is caused by a bug in File Backup where if you don’t back up at least one file during the full backup, every backup after that fails. The workaround is to go through the Backup wizard again and choose a new full file backup at the very end.

                                            Shampoo is just liquid bar soap with some additives and fancy advertising.

                                            Some of those additives are useful, majority is probably better for your hair if you drank it.
