title: Powershell Error Message - Object Not Found
body: <p>I receive the error message below in PowerShell (multiple times) when I attempt to scan a shared drive.  I read (<a href="https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/3259" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/3259</a>) that long path names will not work.  This particular path I reference below had 264 characters.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a work around?</p>
