    I probably depends upon what you are trying to do. Remember what it says within that tutorial: "There is one caveat. This new setting won’t necessarily work with every application out there, but it will work with most."

  • @Run5k I'm just using the file explorer to try and copy a directory inside a fairly deep file tree. Would expect it to work with file explorer. On a broader scale I want it to work with Visual studio, which being a Microsoft product I'd also expect to work, but that isn't as important.

  • From the article you referenced, try the registry fix as well.

  • Yes, I would expect it to work with File Explorer, also... but unfortunately, it doesn't.
