The filenames are too long to fit in this target folder... How do I copy a folder with long names from one local drive to another?

The filenames are too long to fit in this target folder... How do I copy a folder with long names from one local drive to another?

I tried to make a torrent assembly for a folder, but something torrent hung uTorrent 3.5.5 I
also tried to go from under the Sagittarius assembly from under the flash drive and make a copy (through a regular explorer), there was also an error.
How can I copy these files, I can’t rename them, a large number of folders, I won’t rename each one + it’s convenient for me to have voluminous names in order to understand what’s inside in the folder.

Execute
subst z: d:\путь\к\целевому каталогу
and copy to drive Z: (you can use any free drive letter instead of Z:).

Try in the registry ( win+r -> regedit -> Ok ) to set:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\LongPathsEnabled to 1 and reboot.
