How to delete folders recurisvely with long names
Do you have an issue where there are hundred/thousands of folders inside more folders which you are unable to delete due to the filenames being too long.
Solution:
robocopy c:\purge d:\deleteme /purge
Where “d:\deleteme” is the infinite loop path you wish to delete
Make sure to create a blank folder named “purge” in c:\ as mentioned above.

You can use Long Path Tool to solve the problem of deleting files and folder with long filename. It is very useful to solve such type of problem.
