The path "d:" is too long

Hi,

When opening a particular project in RoboHelp I get a message "The path "d:" is too long and will be deleted from the project." The delete doesn't seem to work as I get this message every time I open the project. Has anyone else come across a similar error message? It doesn't seem to be causing any problems but it is annoying.

Thanks,
Greig

    After deleting that folder next time, check via Windows Explorer that the folder really has been deleted. If you get the message after that, then see the topic on my site about Opening Projects. Sounds like it's time to delete the CPD file. Make sure you take a backup first.

    Resolve the Path Too Long error with the help of ‘Long Path Tool’.

    And this "long path tool" is found exactly where?
