Issues installing Point Cloud Library (PCL) 1.9.1 AllInOne msvc 2017 win32

I have a 32-bit application I am trying to integrate with PCL, so I am trying to use the latest 32-bit PCL library I could find.

While installing "Point Cloud Library (PCL) 1.9.1 AllInOne msvc 2017 win32" on my Windows 10 machine, I get an error "Path too long for registry" and then the installation finishes. If I check the installation everything seems to be OK except when I look at the 3rd party folder for the Eigen library, there are no header files but instead a folder named "eigen3".

I'm using VS 2019 but VS 2017 is installed as well.

  2. write gpedit.msc then enter
  3. Go to : Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Filesystem
  4. Click on Enable Win32 long paths

  1. check Enable
