FAT32 has a per-file limit of approximately 4GiB.

You will need to convert to NTFS beyond that.

If you are already NTFS, you have some other issues.

Correct. This is no client issue. its the FAT32 Filesystem windows uses. you would need to format or convert to NTFS in order to store files larger than 4GB
