Extract large zip file (50G) on Mac OS X
- by chingjun
I was trying to move the files to another hard drive. So I archived all my photos in one large zip file using the Mac OS X built-in compress function.
But the file failed to extract. I've tried many programs, but none of the programs I tried were able to extract the file. I've tried Mac OS X's extract utility, Stuffit Expander, 7zip (command line), all failed. Mac's archive utility and Stuffit don't seem to support large files, and 7zip's command line version gave an error stating unsupported archive.
I have no luck in Windows too as many of my files have Chinese filenames, and couldn't extract to the correct name under Windows.
Could anyone please suggest some programs that can support large files, can handle files compressed using Mac OS X's compress function, and can support UTF-8 filename? With or without GUI is fine. Thank you in advance.
