Description Lukas Venhoda 2016-05-26 08:19:14 UTC

When trying to copy larger files (94.3MB was tested), a dialog window saying an error during copying occurred opens.

The error is: Error 0x800700DF: The file size exceeds the limit allowed and cannot be saved

This can be fixed in the windows 7 guest by setting the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters registry key to a large value, for example 4294967295 for maximum of 4GB, and restarting the guest.

Should we change this registry key while installing webdavd?
