I can stop/pause and processing returns to VStudio<br />\n<br />\nWhilst it is &quot;processing&quot; the destination folder contains a temp file &quot;DotNetZip-ac1qi3yg.tmp&quot;<br />\nif I copy and rename this to a &quot;.zip&quot; then I can open it but it fails to test and complains of errors in the file<br />\n(I guess its not complete)<br />\n<br />\nBecause of the 1000 files and some of which are 500mb, i left this to perform its magic for over an hour and still the same -no joy.<br />\n<br />\nIs this normal, is there a limit on files/sizes or is there something else wrong?<br />\n<br />\nIn all cases I am using the .AddFiles( &lt;list of files()&gt;, &lt;fldername&gt;) as the method to add files<br />\nworks when only smaller set of files<br />\n<br />\nAny advise/pointers would be apreciated<br />\n<br />\nthanks<br />\nUrfan<br />\n",
