How do you get win95 to use long file names? I'm not running in dos compatibility mode but I do use a disk manager utility(MAXIBLAST).

No, disable long name preservation for old programs is _not_ checked.
I use FILE MANAGER a lot instead of Exployer you think that's the problem?

File Manager seems to be the culprit....it _does_not_ support long filenames, even the win95 version!!
