The 16-bit version of XCOPY doesn't support long filenames, but the 32-bit XCOPY32 does, that is, in the DOS window of Win9x.

As for the reason, it's really a pity... because the person at Microsoft who made XCOPY support long filenames wasn't familiar with ASM, but was familiar with C, so...

Then if I boot with that 7.10 boot disk you made, and then use the xcopy in it to copy files, it still won't support long filenames either, right?

Then what should I do under dos7.10 to copy long-filename files and directories normally?

Use the COPY command. If you want to copy subdirectories, then use COPY /S in 4DOS 7.50.
