<longPathAware xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2016/WindowsSettings">true</longPathAware>

but after that explorer.exe will not run, because of the digital signature.

And it's real pain in the ***, users and managers don't want to understand these limitations, and crushing my head every day with same problems, unzipping files with long names or path, getting access errors and etc.
