Default .iso file name too long can I change for a shorter one?

Dear All

Windows XP w/SP2
Nero Burning ROM V.6.6.0.16

I download a file named VS2008ExpressWithSP1ENUX1504728.iso, What
happens if I change the file name for a shorter one like
VS08EwSP1EN.iso? Will it burn correctly the image?

Thanks in advance for any information or help you can provide me

Regards,

It should still work fine after renaming. However, I don't think that
filename is too long. It may be that the whole path is too long. If a
rename fixes, great. If not, try copying to some folder that will have
a much shorter path. I think the overall path length is limited to 160
characters or something like that.

Luck,

Twayne
