Hello
I would like to unpack my backup on my desktop using Akeeba eXtract Wizard.
My backup has over 6GB (6 980 077 752). I started wizard elect backup file, the select extract folder, click Next I get dialog box with message "TProgressBar property out of range".
Is it too big file? or what?
regards
Lukas

In theory it shouldn't be too big a file, as all arithmetics are performed internally using 64-bit integers which support archives up to a few petabytes big. On the other hand, I've never tried eXtract against a 6Gb file. The best approach (for several reasons) is to use archive splitting to create 2Gb parts, then download and try to extract those backup parts using Akeeba eXtract Wizard or Kickstart.
