I have a clean install of Beta 3 with nothing in my queue and every time I go to change my incomplete folder i get

"Error: Path length should be below 40."

How do i rectify this issues? Thanks

That's a requirement.
This is to prevent very long job names from causing problems.
The par2 tool cannot handle long paths.
0.8.0 has solved the problem with long paths as a final destination,
however we cannot solve it for the temporary download folder.
