5-3Q. I get the message "Couldn't open the file _______, because the file name was bad". What does that mean?
5-3A. All current operating systems have a maximum file name length. Rename the file you are trying to use something shorter. File names with information about the file are useful when browsing potential downloads, but keep this to a minimum length to avoid getting this error. This is most often seen with AVI files and Windows Media Player.
