  Try renaming the higher level directories in order to reduce the
overall path length.

  In other words, rename "Documents and Settings" to "A", then "John
Smith" (user) to "B", then "Application Data" to "C", and then the app
data under that to "D", and so on.  Eventually you get to
C:\A\B\C\D\E\F\G\H\I\J\K\... and can then delete them.

  SUBST may also work, as someone else suggested.
