Since you haven't given us any details, I'll guess that you are attempting to create a file larger than 4 GB on a FAT32 file system.

Hi
I believe you are trying to create larger file on FAT32 type disk more than 4GB
Format the target/destination disk with Exfat format and this will resolve your issue.

Convert the file system from FAT32/FAT16 to NTFS.
