             This feature will create a compressed zip file of all content within this folder and its sub-folders.

+            <strong>Windows Path Size Limit</strong>
+            Windows has a maximum total path size limit of 256 characters. The maximum path size in this zip file is
+            ${view/path_size} characters. The total path size will be this number <i>plus</i> the length of the folder
+            path to which you extract the files. Consider renaming the short name of folders and files if the total
+            path size needs to be shorter.

             This process may be slow for large folders, and will fail for very large folders. Please contact
