If you are running Windows 95 and you use long file or folder names (i.e. in excess of eight characters), you need to use the alternative short names recognised by MS-DOS. You can find out what these are through the MS-DOS 'DIR' command, or by right-clicking on the folder in Windows Explorer and selecting 'Properties'.
