Windows long path is enabled

[khamid1612]

it is fixed now, by doing the following: The change is in the _shared.py file:

"filename = re.sub('[^A-Za-z0-9]+', '', filepath) - Adding this part in"

def _write_external_links(self, filepath):
    retVal = {}
    filename = re.sub('[^A-Za-z0-9]+', '', filepath)
    if os.name == "nt":
        # If the absolute path to the file is too long, append the 'magic' prefix
        if len(os.path.abspath(filename)) > 255:
            filename = u"\\\\?\\%s" % (os.path.abspath(filename))
