There is a limit to the length of a string in the NSIS installer. If your
current path is longer than this length, then you can get this message. If
the installer were to attempt to update the path, it would truncate it.
Resulting in havoc on your system.
Redirect your path into a file and check the length.
set path > myPath.tx
I forget the length off the top of my head but it is probably 1024 or maybe
2048.
