Maybe it's to do with XCOPY not keeping the short 8.3 name XXCOPY and many other file copy facilities use the short name for the actual file access handle but show the longname in messages.

We do get an error message (can't believe I forgot that part). "Error 0x80070032. The request is not supported". Google-Fu finds a lot of results but I can match none of them to my scenario. What does the 64-bit GUI do during a file copy to a SMB share that the same system using XCOPY at the command line does not? -Dave Lum From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rene de Haas Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2014 9:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NTSysADM] 64-bit GUI file copy puzzler No ErrorMessage? What if you copy to another share not on the SAN?

We now have this bizarre issue where Crystal Reports .RPT files are unable to be copied from a PC to the SAN shares via Windows 64-bit GUI. Renaming an Excel file to .RPT: works Use a 32-bit system to copy the file: works Any other file (PDF, XLS, etc.): works Using XCOPY on a 64-bit machine: works It only fails when using the GUI on a 64-bit system, and it's only on these Crystal Reports .RPT files. If I open one of these RPT files on a 64-bit machine with Notepad, change one byte, save it to the PC I can then copy it over. Ideas?
