I had the same issue with RunOnce. The solution was to create the RunOnce data in a file and have the RunOnce key start the program with a command line that said "hey, the data you want is in this file".

Hi, I've got a bundle which ends up putting a command line in the runonce key (post-reboot) that is longer than 256 characters... the effect being that after reboot, the bundle is not restarted (the command fails sliently) I could shorten the exe name but if the user id in the %temp% path is really long, it could still be more than the limit.. A definable override for the logname would be good... (not command-line) Any ideas?
