Long file folder path restore

$

Hello,

Within the company I work for there is a Windows Server 2008 Standard file server that has a few folders with long file and folder names. I have brought to the departments attention that the file paths must be considered. Meantime they have many folders that have reached the 256 character limit. Unfortunately they were allowed to save those folders and files anyway, and were backed up that was using Replay 4, which uses VSS. Now these same folders cannot be restored because when saving to the restore destination, the path is too long. Of course the backup software vendor points to the Windows limitation. My question is, is there a way around this problem, a reg tweek, or anything I can use to restore these folders as they were backed up?

Thank You
