I believe, Windows cannot load PE executables larger than 4 GB, so the only thing You are probably left to do, is well, to try shrinking the file less than 4 GB. I've seen a method among some repacks larger than the 4 GB size, they move the compressed files outside of the executable. Not sure how to achieve that, but maybe that could be a feature for the future release of this compressor?

how about diskspan? have you tried before?

Oh, I haven't done compressing for a while now, and only hopped in here because I thought I might clarify that this exact issue is with caused by the Windows OS loader, and give a suggestion. But if that helps somehow, I can try to compress a large game using diskspan when I have some free time and report what happens

sfx created with freearc "original" setup cannot start if larger than 4gb, and sometimes cannot be closed unless the process was terminated via task manager
