Error when creating windows installer #118

Closed mzmousa closed 8 years ago

I know this is mainly a C# issue, so the problem is in squirrel. However short I make my path names, I get this error.

Running "create-windows-installer:x64" (create-windows-installer) task
Warning: Failed with exit code: 1
Output:

The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.

This worked after removing the dependencies in my app that had paths that were too long. Also updating npm or using npm dedupe may be effective.
