With latest Beta I've problem using ftp server. All was working fine before update.
Now when I want to use a ftp-server and double click on an item, nothing happened. Must use context menu - edit - connect
Connection is possbile but cannot enter any folder with mouse or keyboard. Any hints?

Just updated to 14.5 build 3051 BETA.

There are problems creating valid zip archives of larger sizes.

I needed to compress about 7 GiB of data and after finishing I opened the archive and I noticed I cannot find all my files in the newly created archive.
I tried to reproduce with another data, 5 GiB. The same results, not all files are found in the archive.
MC can open the archives and reports their size correctly. I know this because my files were not very compressible.

I used Double Commander to check the resulting MC archives and DC cannot open them, but DC can create valid archives out of exactly the same data.

Can somebody reproduce this? Just select some files until you make up about 5-7 GiB and then Alt + F5 and <Enter>.

Hello! Thanks for replying.

I didn't have the old version anymore, haha, but trying to find more info on this, so:
- I redownloaded Multi Commander v14.4 (Build 3047) (32 bit)
- used 14.4 to recreate the archive with the exact dataset as with 14.5 BETA
It's exactly the same result, the archive is corrupted.

One more clue, in both 14.4 and 14.5 I used "Internal zip (max)" from Packer profiles.

Update 1
Redid the compression with 14.4 with "Internal zip (normal)" packer profile - still creating corrupted archive.

Update 2
Redid the compression with 14.4 with "7-zip" packer profile - the archive is valid.

Ok so Old issue. nothing that is unique to 14.5  Ok then It should been posted in other section.. but ok..

I have only tested to zip 2 5G files. together so that worked. so might be some combination of things. will do more test later

Zip and 7Zip are totally different. even if both are called "zip"  7Zip have nothing to do with zip, Different 3rd party libraries that handle that

Try beta build 3053. I think I found the issue

I confirm the issue is not present in 3053. Thank you.

Zip and 7Zip are totally different

I know, that's why I did tests with both. I wanted for you to have more clues where to look for the problem.

Ok then It should been posted in other section..

Ah yes, sorry about that. I found the bug after update to 14.5.

This should also be fixed in the 3053 build
