I saw 33105, but believe this to be a different issue as path length 260 is valid. I did testing by crafting a path that is exactly 260 by hand - A path 259 in length reports .isfile() as True. |

The legacy maximum buffer size is 260 characters, but remember that strings in C are terminated by a null character (i.e. "\0"). So the maximum path length is actually 259 characters when opening files. In Windows 10 with Python 3.6+, you can enable the `LongPathsEnabled` system setting to extend the limit up to about 32760 characters. In many cases you can also use the "\\\\?\\" extended-path prefix to access a long path (e.g. r"\\?\C:\some\long\path"), but the path has to be fully qualified and can only use backslash as the separator, not forward slash. |

What an annoying edge case - makes sense that there isn't an easy fix. The extended path prefix worked perfectly - thanks |
