Is the error being caused by Staxrip or MKVToolnix, or Avisynth?

I apologize for not keeping a screenshot or a log of the error. If you insist, I can recreate the error by just putting an MKV into a long filename path for you.

Also thank you for making this program.

Hope you consider!
, I seen someone doesn't read the Changelogs. LongPath support was added long ago. But your OS has to support it and you must Enable it. With that being Said I have no idea if MKVTool supports it or not.

Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Filesystem > Enable NTFS long paths

Code:
 <longPathAware xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2016/WindowsSettings">true</longPathAware>
As you see the Reference is there with support of dealing with long paths. Not going post that code since it's a bit lengthy.
