Summarisation
When MAX_PATH (the opt-out, 260-character path length limitation) is bypassed with the LongPathsEnabled Registry preference, or //?/ prepended to the path, does another limitation exist? Such a low-level OS component supporting something of infinite length is rare.
Context
For comparison, Linux hard-codes PATH_MAX at 4096, which can solely be bypassed with file descriptors (as far as I know), even though EXT4 and BTRFS (for instance) support more.
Likewise, I’m aware that Windows 11 solely supports the exFAT, FAT32, and NTFS filesystems, of which NTFS’s path limit is 32 768. However, I’ll be impressed if it can address that.
