Hello John,
My name is Patricia and I am an Independent Advisor. I am here to help you today.
Disable the path limit length is recommended after Python setup is successful, because if python was installed in a directory with a path length greater than 260 characters, adding it to the path could fail.
So don't worry about that action and proceed to it.
So I just installed python 3.10.5 and the setup gave me a option to disable path length limit and I'm clueless what that is because I have never did any coding before and this is my first time
HI, guys i need help. Am installing python 3.7.4 python in my windows 10. Then after installation, i got this disable path lenth limit. I don't know whether to disable or not.
I'm following an SD install guide and it says "After the python installation, click the "Disable path length limit", then click on "Close" to finish".
I installed Python 3.10.6, since that's what I was using on my last computer. But the install wizard terminated the install without prompting me to disable path length limit. Is it something I really need to do. And if so, is there some way I can do it manually?

Así que acabo de instalar Python 3.10.5 y la configuración me dio la opción de deshabilitar el límite de longitud de ruta y no tengo ni idea de qué es eso porque nunca antes había codificado y esta es la primera vez.
Las versiones antiguas de Windows tienen un límite en la longitud de algunos archivos, si no me equivoco, entonces 260 +- y, por lo tanto, al instalar Python se le pregunta sobre el límite. No importa mucho, pero por ejemplo, los programas antiguos de 32 bits tienen un límite de 260, es decir, si alguna vez escribes un script para algunos programas antiguos de 32 bits, tendrás problemas.
Por lo tanto, puedes incluir.
para any1 del futuro, solo asegúrese de hacer clic en la opción deshabilitar límite de ruta. te salva de errores extraños
I'm debating installing from Python.org or Chocolatey. I just wanna know if that max path limit is bypassed in Chocolatey's installation.
Our org has as lot of paths like:

Then we get the occasional issue with "it's not saving" or "it won't open." Without the more obvious solutions which would involve the users doing something, would a simple reg change to remove the path limit on workstations as well as the file servers pose much of a risk? We're on Win 10 22H2 Ent LTSC, file servers on 2019. However I think (gotta confirm) that we may be on the 32 bit version of Office 2021.
Thanks.
