The limit is 32,000 characters.
Only if you go into settings, disable the safety measures and change it. And some apps might break.
No, the default file path limit is 256 characters. And I don’t mean file name. Full file path.
No, you don’t need to change any settings, that’s the thing! Windows, unlike other OSes, has several APIs. Old apps (and dumb apps) are using old API and are limited to 260 characters. New apps are using new API and are limited by 32k characters. This “new API” is available since NT4, btw.
