I have the x64 CoreFTP LE v2.2 build 1771 and have been trying to download a 350 GB file. I have tried several times, but the FTP download has failed somewhere in the 212GB to 218GB range everytime I run it.
Is there a filesize limit that could be preventing me from successfully downloading this file?
(I have just under 3TB of disk space on the target drive but only 80GB free on the system drive if you are using that for scratch area for some reason. I didn't see any serious activity on the system disk but thought could help set a better context.)
thanks

Is there an FTP client file size maximum?

I am using straight FTP with user login.
I kicked off a restart this morning and here is the screen log. Although it looks like the file downloaded and the CoreFTP local window has an updated filesize, I see no change to the target file after CoreFTP finishes.

Just to follow-up and close this thread.
I was able to successfully download the ~350GB file using a different FTP client. I am still not sure what problem this file caused for CoreFTP LE when downloading, but I was not able to get CoreFTP LE to retrieve the complete file correctly after many attempts. The file was gzip'd and encrypted and if the problem is more than just file size related, I am sorry, but I won't be able to provide much more information.
