If you're having trouble with the 260 char limit, it is not a wix thing but a System.IO 'feature'. I reflectored System.IO.File to understand why it won't accept paths of 32000 chars. The winapi is capable of doing that by putting \\?\ in front of your path/file. Unfortunately the managed code does a lot of sanity checking before handing off the path to the winapi. One of the checks is to disallow \\?\.
