you know I got some torrent files that start to exceed the limit on filenames. I wonder if those are doing something similar. I just assumed newer versions of windows are just running shittier script shells on top of old Windows 7 architecture, but maybe that’s worth looking into

but I would guess there are some wide differences between Server 2022 and a consumer Windows build. A lot of effort seemed to get put into transparency visual effects and window transitions. Maybe this is just my bias but I think industry applications are little better stress tested and optimized for things like file management
