https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/maximum-file-path-limitation > Cygwin APIs on Windows 11, NAME_MAX is 255 PATH_MAX is 4096 Note that PATH_MAX is, per POSIX, *not* the maximum absolute path length, as many people think: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/limits.h.html Max path length is bound by OS limits per the above MSDN document. > and SFU on Win7? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Win 7 support ends with Cygwin 3.5 anyway.
