The compression cannot be performed because the path to the file or directory….. is too long.

It is mostly happens when your file address is too long or a file one of them has too long name/s as far as I think, but there are many other reasons.
The most appearing reason is show below in a screenshot.

Reasons why it happen:

• File has too long address.
• File has too long name or one of them have too long name/s.
• File size is too long (This reason for when you use the method Right+Click ----> Send To --> Compressed File)
• You have recently changed the language for non-unicode programs" in Control panel - Regional and Language options.

Solution:

• Create a shortcut of your desired file or folder on desktop and compress this file or folder again (This is the easiest solution to solve this problem).
• Rename your target file or folder.
• Create a new folder on desktop then copy your desired file or folder in this new folder
• Change the location of you target file or folder.
