After installation completed I try to run NetBeans, but icon is corrupted and it can't access to <INST_DIR>/bin because Path is too long. Created attachment 44262 [details]

Actually Mike has alredy filed issues 96548 and 97984 so let this one be only about the informative message :) I've added the notion of the maximum length of path which will be displayed in the error message. This is not an ultimate solution but it will facilitate the interpretation of the error. The displayed message does not specify the maximum length of path. See attached screenshot. Reopen issue.
