7zip extract to cloudBerry Drive gives error 'cannot set length of output file. a device attached to the system is not functioning' - 7zip

Am using 7zip V 17.x GUI to extract files directly to CloudBerry Drive. For larger files >2GB, I get an error 'cannot set length of output file. a device attached to the system is not functioning'.
Is there a workaround in CloudBerry drive setting or in 7zip to fix this error.
Many thanks.

Just found the solution that the cloudBerry drive's temp/working folder is running out of space, hence 7-zip is not able to do the job. After changing CloudBerry drive's temp/working folder directory via : Options -> Advanced -> File Cache Directory ,
the issue is solved.

How to recover all data if OS changes from windows to raspbian?

I've installed Raspbian OS in my PC ,so all my data in windows 10 drives is may be deleted . Do I recover that ? (in a very critical situation)
I assume that you didn't wipe the disk. I also assume that you stopped using your disk immediately to avoid overwriting your files.
Teskdisk will not work for you. But scalpel will. I will explain two ways to use it, depending your sources and your tools.
First, I assume that you have another laptop/desktop with a linux OS and a SATA to USB converter. If these apply to you, for faster results, do the following.
Extract the disk from your PC
Connect it via USB to another PC
Install the package scalpel
With your favourite editor (vi/vim/nano, etc) open the file /etc/scalpel/scalpel.conf and uncomment the preferred lines
Run the following command ( scalpel /dev/sdX# -o output ) which will scan your disk and find any selected file type that is not overwritten but it may find some corrupted files.
Secondly, I assume that you have a USB disk with a linux iso. This way is cheaper but slower. In that case, do the following.
Boot from the USB to the linux OS
Install the package scalpel
With your favourite editor (vi/vim/nano, etc) open the file /etc/scalpel/scalpel.conf and uncomment the preferred lines
Run the following command ( scalpel /dev/sdX# -o output ) which will scan your disk and find any selected file type that is not overwritten but it may find some corrupted files.
The folder named output will be in the path from which you ran the command scalpel. In the folder named output will be a txt file named audit.txt and folders with the selected types you searched for and inside them the recovered files, many of which will be corrupted.
Wish you luck!

Does NSIS support external files?

I basicaly want to have an external very large (bigger than 2gb) file next to my setup executable. To realize this, in the script I have tried the following:
File "$EXEDIR/verybigfile"
However, I got the following error:
File: "$EXEDIR/verybigfile" -> no files found.
Is it possible to do this in NSIS or do I require a plugin to realize this?
Thanks.
The File instruction cannot use variables like $EXEDIR, it needs the local path on your machine but you will hit the 2 GiB limit because these files are stored inside the installer.
If you are shipping a DVD or something like that you can use CopyFiles /SILENT "$EXEDIR\files\*.*" "$InstDir" to copy files from a DVD to the users system. This instruction does not support any kind of decompression, it is just a plain copy operation.
You need to use a plug-in to extract from .ZIP/.7z files.

Getting Oracle 12 C Installation Error File Not Found

I have downloaded two zip files of Oracle 12 C.
I have extracted and trying installing it on Windows 10 64 Bit.
winx64_12102_database_1of2
winx64_12102_database_2of2
Setup is available in folder one running the same from there.
Every time I am getting below error
The solution to this Error is simply when you are unzipping the folders unzip at one common folder as i have done
You will find components folders as shown below
D:\softwares\12coracle\winx64_12102_database_1of2\database\Components
D:\softwares\12coracle\winx64_12102_database_2of2\database\stage\Components
Please try to read the log details as shown in screenshot above,its showing the path where installation log are being created. The location was C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs \installActions2016-01-26_01-50-16AM.
After going through the logs i found that,In my case it was not able to find the files at below path during the installation
D:\softwares\12coracle\winx64_12102_database_1of2\database\stage\Components\oracle.rdbms\12.1.0.2.0\1\DataFiles
Because there was other unzipped part as shown below and it was unable to get the files at abovepath Hence i copied all the file from below path to the above path location
D:\softwares\12coracle\winx64_12102_database_2of2\database\stage\Components\oracle.rdbms\12.1.0.2.0\1\DataFiles
I ran the whole installation again and folks it completed in overall 55 mins the overall installation with the plugable and container database configuration itself.
Follow the below steps:
Abort the current installer.
Navigate to second folder /database/stage/Components/ and copy all the files.
Paste all the files in first folder location /database/stage/Components/
Finally , run the setup.exe as administrator

Error 1334 .File cannot be found in the Data1.cab

I am working on a Win 7-64 bit machine. I have a software installation package which contains the .msi file, a CAB file and some MST files. I wanted to modify the cabinet file. So I extracted the cab file using CABARC utility.
But before making any changes to the extracted files, just for testing the utility I removed the original cab file from the current directory. And created a new cab file from the files extracted from the original cab file, again using CABARC utility.
But now if I run the .msi file, it shows the error:
ERROR:1334. The file "XYZ" cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet file Data1.cab. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package.
But the file is present in the cabinet file I can see that. The same installer is working fine with the original cab file.
I have tried different compression types (MSZIP, LZX:<15...21>) as well, but none of them work. I have not removed/added any file in the cabinet file. Am I doing anything wrong or if there is any other information that a cabinet file stores ?
Thanks.
This error when the setup path exceed the path limit for OS. Try changing output path for installer path to some shorter path.

Can't copy executable files from network share to local disk

In my setup there is a win7 in a virtuialbox on a linux host. I like to use a "shared folder" with the host which is seen as "network location" in win7. Unfortunately I'm not able to execute some files from the shared folder (I want to put installer files there and install them in a lot of snapshots of my virtual machine). It's also not possible to copy the files to win7's local hard drive.
Error message for copying is:
An unexpected error is keeping you from copying the file...
Error 0x80070057: The parameter is incorrect.
Error message when trying to execute directly:
The specified path does not exist. (I'm sure it exists because I just double-clicked the file.)
I assume this is some kind of "security" setting but I could not find out how to disable this.
