title: How do you automate copying file with path too deep issues in Windows?
body: <p>I want to be able to selectively copy a list of files and preserve their directory structure.  The problem is that there are quite a few files that their path exceeds 256 character.  How is this problem usually handled?</p>
  
  <p>Edit:
  I should make it clear that I only want to selectively copy files, not folders.  I don't think robocopy can be efficiently used to copy an individual file and it's folder structure effectively.</p>
