>>>I downloaded and installed WinRAR and it recognized the 4 GB zip file and is in the process of extracting it. It must be that native Windows extractor had an issue with this file.

>Maybe it does in 64-bit version? I've seen TC warn me about something of the kind when I tried to make such a big zip, something like "it is possible that some apps won't be able to handle this". The file turned out smaller than that, it was just that the initial estimate showed it might cross the boundary.
As far as 64-bit version, the computer where I first tried to extract this > 2 Gb file using Windows native feature is 64-bit.
