file - having no content - under Windows 10. All for one, and one for All.

 Well... that didn't truncate, my news client wrapped the file name to
two and half lines (note -- I had not reached the limit for Win10 file
names but got tired of rambling).

 PowerShell even formats it nicely, by not wrapping to the left margin
-- instead indenting the wrapped text into the file name column.

 Off hand, I'd say Windows will display to the physical limit of the
file name -- and that span would be unique between entries.
