>>Using VFP Compression, when compressing files larger than 3 GB it appears that the zip file it produces is corrupted and cannot be unzipped.
>>It does not display any error, only when trying to unzip the file it gives the error that the file is corrupted. Is this a known issue or is there a work around or perhaps another tool that I could use to zip files larger than that?

Yes, it uses the latest version. To be sure I downloaded it again and run the procedure with the latest version.
The unzip fails with 7zip as well as zip, the zip file is clearly corrupted. Also has nothing to do with the media, which I tested on several different devices already. I believe it must be a limitation of VFPCompression.fll, but I wonder if anybody else uses this tool to zip large files.
