Installing dbx on Windows 10 Enterprise fails: "The filename or extension is too long"

Hello - I am attempting to install dbx on a Windows 10 Enterprise desktop (running as a virtual desktop on Microsoft Devbox). However, during the installation, I am getting an error from the Python installer that the filename or extension being written is too long.

Expected Behavior

pip3 install dbx successfully installs the dbx package

Current Behavior

pip3 install dbx fails with the following error:

ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [WinError 206] The filename or extension is too long: 'C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python310\site-packages\dbx\templates\projects\python_basic\render\{{cookiecutter.project_name}}\{{cookiecutter.project_slug}}\tasks'

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

Download and install VSCode Download and install Python 3.10 from Microsoft Store In VSCode, open terminal > type pip3 install dbx

Context

There is a Windows registry key that can override the max_path setting of the operating system. However, I am running in an enterprise environment and don't have direct access to modify the registry. I can probably ask IT to do it on my behalf, but it would be nice if the package didn't bring up this error in the first place.

Your Environment

Windows 10 Enterprise Version 10.0.19045 Build 19045 VSCode 1.75.1 Python 3.10 from Microsoft Store

dbx version used: current (via pip3 install dbx)
Databricks Runtime version: N/A - local environment issue
