My guess is that message IS helpful. If you have changed paths to
where the project is running from, or are embedding frameworks, your
classpath could now be too long for Windows to handle. Long ago, when
I used windows, I ended up having to define drive letters mapped to
paths get the command line small enough. But then I got better and
started to use a real operating system.

Were you embedding frameworks? Are you now? Have any related paths
gotten longer?
