Note that it is possible to enable longer paths in Windows 10 and 11 with a registry change, setting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\LongPathsEnabled to 1
Also note that my IT department refused to do this for me on my work machine "because it might cause compatibility problems with others."
I made the registry change and it didn't fix it. Most tools (including Windows' built-in File Explorer, and unzip tools) apparently still have the path length limitation built into the program/tool itself regardless of the registry setting. Check out the program I wrote. I think you'll find it useful.
