[Archivesspace_Users_Group] paths too long to unzip?

[Reese, Terry P.]

Certain versions of windows have file length limits that are enforced with Explorer.  If you are unzipping - you might try creating a folder at the C-root and see if that gives you enough characters.

There is a post on the listserv (can't find it right now) about some advice for dealing with this issue after unzipping.

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] paths too long to unzip?

I'm trying to unzip the ArchivesSpace 1.51, and I get errors on two .yml files in the zip-file.

The only option I have is to skip them and move on.  I'd like to go back to the zip and find them and copy them out individually, but I can't seem to search the zip - there is some windows trick that is eluding me.

The two files having really long path names (path + filename) are


is_set_to_an_open-uri_d_URI_s_URI.yml

overrides_the_inferred_system_ID_if_set_explicitly...




Has anybody else gotten around this problem?  Or does anybody know where in the filestructure they live, so I can get them out of the zip-file?  Do the names really have to be this long?
