# How to allow longer path/file names | ||
|
||
As of V90.##, you will need to allow for longer path/file names, as this is not enabled by default in Windows. Failure to do so will result in the [MSB3553](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/msbuild/errors/msb3553?view=vs-2022) compiler error. | ||
|
||
There are two ways that you can do this. They are:- | ||
|
||
1. Via [`gpedit`](#option-1---via-gpedit) | ||
2. Via an elevated [PowerShell](#option-2---PowerShell) prompt | ||
|
||
## Option 1 - via `gpedit` | ||
|
||
**Step 1** | ||
|
||
Search for `gpedit.msc` from the start or search menu, then open it. | ||
|
||
**Step 2** | ||
|
||
Navigate to `Computer Configuration` -> `Administrative Templates` -> `System` -> `Filesystem`. | ||
|
||
**Step 3** | ||
|
||
Look for a setting called `Enable Win32 Long paths` on the right side. | ||
|
||
 | ||
|
||
**Step 4** | ||
|
||
Double click the `Enable Win32 Long paths` setting, click `Enabled`, then click OK. | ||
|
||
 | ||
|
||
**Step 5** | ||
|
||
Close _all_ windows and restart your computer. | ||
|
||
_**Note:** It is necessary to do this, so that changes can take effect._ | ||
|
||
|
||
## Option 2 - PowerShell | ||
|
||
Open a new _elevated_ PowerShell prompt, then run the command as shown below. | ||
|
||
```ps | ||
New-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem" ` -Name "LongPathsEnabled" -Value 1 -PropertyType DWORD -Force | ||
``` |
