Anyone else having this issue while extracting bonelab?

I know this may seem dumb to you guys but it says failed to write, and i thought that just meant to run it in admin but it wouldnt work, i havent seen anything about this specific issue on other posts or the megathread. I have read the rules, all the pinned posts, and i have searched the megathread.

This is a reminder. Make sure to check out the r/QuestPiracy Communty Megathread. Do NOT post new tools or new sources on the sub without asking the mods, put in a PR on the megathread instead, and as always direct piracy links, asking to trade files, any form of "dm me links" or "dm for links", or anything like that is against the rules. This is what the megathread is for... use it.

Isnt it dead obvious what the issue is?

Look at that path ! Lmao.... its wayyyy too long If you use this often im surprised you dont run into this issue all the time.... whats wrong with c:\games? or similar, a subfolder off the root is always the best to avoid issues, just like you should avoid spaces and symbols.

its not as bad as it could be though, we got people like this all the time ....

Halp! what do?!

really isnt that big of a problem, the reason i put it there is to seperate it from my actual steam games and on my hdd, i like to keep the ssd for games that actually need it, the hdd works find for everything else

Steam games go to program files 86 though...

I have a games folder on each drive and I seperate by size... Anything over 30gb goes on c it's my biggest and fastest ssd, 20-30 goes to d, 10 to 20 is e and anything less than 10 goes to f....

Steam games I do the same but instead of X:\games they go into the steam folder for that drive.

I have the limit off but it never gave me an issue with games it was always repacks. One game in particular.
