According to this page:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/maximum-file-path-limitation

the maximum length of a file path is MAX_PATH (260) which includes the
driver letter,
directory names, path separators and the file name. To be on the safe side,
I chose
255. I can change it to 260.
