I am trying to remove a directory whose path exceeds the
256 charachter long filename limitation. "del" does not
do anything and "rmdir" returns with the error that says
the directory is not empty. Any suggestions?
 
Or set the default to the folder it is contained in and delete it by its
name only. If still too long, find its 8.3 name with:

dir/ad /x

and delete it with that name.

/Al
