Vivado – “ERROR: [Common 17-143] Path length exceeds 260-Byte maximum allowed by Windows”
Description
While using Vivado on a Windows platform, I receive the following error:
ERROR: [Common 17-143] Path length exceeds 260-Byte maximum allowed by Windows: <LongPathtoFileName>
The error is most common when generating an IP core or when archiving a project, but is not limited to these events.
Example: If I attempt to archive the Vivado project from File -> Archive Project, the following error occurs:
ERROR: [Common 17-143] Path length exceeds 260-Byte maximum allowed by Windows: <LongPathtoFileName>
ERROR: [Coretcl 2-229] (archive_project): Project save_as failed due to the previous error(s).
