Fix Windows file path length limitation

Hi Jacob, have there been any further developments on another pre-release for us to test?
We are approaching our decommission date for Blackboard, so the matter is becoming somewhat urgent :/

Currently this is somewhat big of a change, so probably won't include it for now until I rework the download module to simplify things. In the meantime, you can manually change the path limitation on your machine and then report back.

Or you can try using mac or Linux.
