BUG: Negative File Size Replacing File Over 2 Gigabytes (140988)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 3.51
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.51
This article was previously published under Q140988 SYMPTOMS
When you replace a two-gigabyte or larger file from within File Manager,
the "Confirm File Replace" dialog box shows a negative value rather than
the expected value of the file. For example, the dialog box may show:
Replace File: C:\TEMP\TEXT.TXT
-2147483648 bytes 1/1/80 12:00:00 AM
With File: C:\TEMP2\TEXT.TXT
1024 bytes 1/1/80 12:00:00 AM
When the actual file sizes are:
C:\TEMP\TEXT.TXT 2147483648 bytes
C:\TEMP2\TEXT.TXT 1024 bytes
RESOLUTION
The file is correctly replaced without error.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows NT
version 3.51. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
