Adafruit Feather M0 Build Issue

Hi,

This is hopefully a simple issue but I cannot figure it out. Trying to build anything for an Adafruit Feather M0 board (even the default main.cpp file) I get the following error:

Appears to be an issue with TinyUSB? I believe everything is up to date.

Thanks in advance!

This path is extremely long – if you’ve additionally placed the root of the project in some deep nested folder, you will hit a Windows legacy path length limitation of 260 characters.

Either move the project up a few folders or enable “Windows Long Paths”, e.g. per here or here, and reboot.

Interesting, thank you! It appears that building a project with a shorter path does indeed work.

Are you aware of any potential downsides associated with enabling “Windows Long Paths”?

Thanks again!

I’ve had it enabled since I had problems compiling Marlin (due to subfolders of subfolders of subfolders of subfolders in the libraries), years ago, which it resolved, and had no negative impact on anything else I was doing. The Microsoft article is also not talking about any downsides.
