are way too long in filename, when you right click no properties option
shows up, i am also unable to copy or open the file.nothing happens at all
when clicked on,any help is appreciated.
 
You should be able to manipulate them from cmd.exe. "dir /x" will give you
8.3 names to work with. You can to pass those into other cmdline tools to
get whatever information you need or to rename the files.
