Welcome to the Forum GMQ.

To enable Long Paths for file names do the following:
  • Right-click on Start and select Command Prompt (Admin)
  • Click Yes when the User Account Control alert appears
  • In the Administrator: Command Prompt opens type or copy & paste the following:

    Code:
    REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem" /v LongPathsEnabled /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

    Press Enter key to execute.

    Close the command window. Done.

    Note: Enabling this can affect some 32-bit applications and may cause instability. If later you prefer to return to the default setting where Long Paths are not enabled simply enter this command instead:

    Code:
    REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem" /v LongPathsEnabled /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
