Windows itself has a command length limitation that you're running into. We're working on a workaround, but please just invoke the CAST binary yourself against the drives or directories you wish to scan.

I just added a commit and pull request to break the scans into groups of 20 files. This should avoid most string limitations.

@bk-cs's PR should have addressed this sufficiently. Please let us know if you continue to see the error.
