The specified path, file name, or both are too long.

[erossini]

Hi,
In my NET 9 MAUI application, I want to use your component to track the crashes. I saw the issues opened like this one. I read the documents

• https://github.com/TobiasBuchholz/Plugin.Firebase?tab=readme-ov-file#basic-setup
• https://github.com/AdamEssenmacher/GoogleApisForiOSComponents?tab=readme-ov-file#windows--visual-studio-long-path-issue

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.

I checked the document and the RegEdit

I cleaned Mac and Windows as in the document

dotnet nuget locals all -c # Clear all Nuget cache
cd $env:localappdata # Go to your AppData\Local folder
Get-ChildItem -Filter "*Xamarin*" # Check for your XamarinBuildDownloadCache folder
rm -Force -Recurse XamarinBuildDownloadCache # Delete that folder
Get-ChildItem -Filter "*Xamarin*" # Confirm that it has been deleted

If I add the component on Mac, it is working but then fails in Windows. What else can I try?

[kerberosargos]

Yes same problem has for me

[AdamEssenmacher]

There are workaround instructions in the readme linked above. Make sure you follow them in order and to the letter, including the steps that ask you to ensure you didn't skip previous steps.

[erossini]

Yes, I followed all the steps as the instructions. Also, I tried not just change the registry but an option for long path in the Advanced settings but it is not exist anymore. I restarted the laptop a few times after the changes in the registry.

I can install the component in my iMac but I develop in my Windows machine.

I tried to install the Xamarin packages but I have the same issue

[AdamEssenmacher]

If you are unable to restore and build via CLI with long paths enabled in the Windows registry due to the long path issue, then you just won't be able to build for iOS on Windows.

[erossini]

How can I install the package only for Android then? Do I have to change manually the project file? Could you advice me what I have to add? Thank you in advance, Enrico

[kerberosargos]

I have did everthing. But 7-zip console can not extract file as my opinon. Problem is not just about ios. Android can not compile too. 16 Ağu 2025 Cmt, saat 21:27 tarihinde Enrico Rossini < ***@***.***> şunu yazdı:

That sounds like a different problem then. Check out #494

[kerberosargos]

When I kill 7-zip console from Process Window I am getting error as following Unpacking failed. Please download ' https://dl.google.com/firebase/ios/analytics/c7be091d3128a013/GoogleAppMeasurement-11.0.0.tar.gz' and extract it to the 'C:\Users\mahmut\AppData\Local\XamarinBuildDownloadCache\GAppM-11.0.0' directory and create an empty file called 'C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\XamarinBuildDownloadCache\GAppM-11.0.0.unpacked'.

That is the long path issue described above. Remove the iOS target when building for Android.

Converted to a discussion since this seems to be more of a request for help than an actionable issue from the perspective of the Plugin.
