On Win10 you can remove the 260 char path-limit:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem]
"LongPathsEnabled"=dword:00000001
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Save the above as a .reg file and right click -> merge -> ok.
