Is long path tool safe?

[GrandMushroom5]

The title says it all. Is the longPathTool program safe to use. I am trying to download cinebench but there is a file that is too long to copy so i am trying to find programs to help fix that.

if you have a file with a name too long to copy, you're putting it in a place it shouldnt be. NTFS path names can be plenty long enough.

 

its not a matter if the tool is safe, its a matter of you doing things you shoudnt in the first place.

I was extracting the cinebench file and it said that the file is too long to copy, how can i extract the file in a different place where it’s suppose to be?
