Visual Studio Error: The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters

on

ERROR:

Visual Studio (also nuget error)  The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters

FIX:

Not an Error! Thats the feature of the world's best IDE - This is one big flaw in the IDE that Visual Studio conflicts with the Windows Operating system. The Windows OS supports long file path by default. VS couldn't support because the earlier developers applied this restriction in whole bunch of Windows sub products. oops.

So, Change your file path, move the files and minimize the path length  to a simple (<260 charecters) directory , file path.
