That may depend on if you're using Fat32 or NTFS. I think because of the way Fat32 is designed the full path limit is 255. NTFS shouldn't have this problem. Ahh.. here's some more info I found: The real issue is the fact that different parts of windows limit MAX_PATH to 260 to make things backwards compatible with old applications (think Win16). It might be something Slim guys could fix in their code to use a larger MAX_PATH when compiling C applications.
