Export File and Folder

Note

Confirm the status of file

  • Do not access the file that is being exported through the export utility from another application. When the file in the export process is being accessed, an error may occur.

  • When decrypting the file in the export destination, the OS operation authority is required for encrypting files, and files cannot be decrypted without operation authority.

  1. Start the File Export Utility window.

  2. Add the file or folder to be exported with any of the following methods.

    Note

    When selecting the file and folder of export source, consider the restriction of export destination

    The following restrictions are applied to the length of the file name or folder name of the export target.
    Therefore, before export, check the length of the file name or folder name to be exported to make sure it is within the limit of export target.
    In particular, when exporting folders, if the subordinate files exceed the limit, an error will also occur, which will disable the export. Be aware of this.

    [About the character encoding, length of file name and folder name of export target]
    The maximum length of the file name of the export target is 240 bytes (including path length) (folder separator (\) is counted as 1 byte, and 1 character of a file name and folder name is counted as 2 bytes).
    In addition, file name and folder name are specified within halfwidth and 64 fullwidth characters respectively.

    UNICODE characters cannot be used for the file name and folder name of the export target.

    The following restrictions are applied to the character code of the file name and folder name of the export target.

    [About the character encoding of the name of the file and folder to be exported]

    When encrypting the file or folder before export, or exporting a file or folder to CD/DVD, the UNICODE characters cannot be used in the name of the file and folder to be exported.

    • Use the menu of the File Export Utility window.

      1. Select Add file from the File menu when exporting files.

      2. The selection window for the file to be exported is displayed.

      3. Select the file or folder to be exported and click the Open button.

      If you right-click on Execute as Administrator when starting the Export Utility, drag and drop cannot be performed. But with the administrator login, drag and drop can be performed from Execute as Administrator.

    The File Export Utility window is displayed.

    When folder export is selected, the total size of files under this folder will be displayed in Size.

      Specify the path length including files no greater than 240 bytes (count folder separator (\) as 1 byte, and count 1 character of file name and folder name as 2 bytes).

      The following halfwidth symbols cannot be used in folder name.

      '\', '/', ':', ';', '*', '?', '"', '<', '>', '|'
