   Quote from the relevant section in WRE 
([link](https://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-exts.html#:~:text=In%20addition%2C%20some,portability%2C%20100%20bytes.)):
   
   >  In addition, some applications on Windows can only work with path names 
of certain length, following an earlier limit in the Windows operating system. 
Packages are normally distributed as tarballs, and these have a limit on path 
lengths. So, to be friendly to users who themselves may want to use a 
relatively long path where they extract the package, and for maximal 
portability, 100 bytes.
