Summary


Details

When replacing part ( with Insight managed data) receive message:


Change Source 
 <filename> 
 The file size exceeds the limit allowed and cannot be saved. 



Solution

The issue is caused by a Microsoft default regestry setting. MS will not 
allow a file larger than 50MB to be download from a website.


This problem is caused by a download file size limitation.


'FileSizeLimitInBytes' is set by default to 5000000 which limits the download 
on the client side.


The problem is solved by modifying the Registry Parameter: {ON THE CLIENT}


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters 


1. Select 'FileSizeLimitInBytes' -> RMB Modify... you will see the Default 
Base: Hexadecimal - Value: 2faf080 then change this to Base: Decimal - (Display 
of the value is now in Bytes) 
2. Change Value to 104857600 Bytes (=100 MB , maximum is 4294967295 which is 
4GB) 
3. Reboot
