[BUG] 17.000 files too much?

[itkind]

Configuration

• Keka version: 1.2.52 (4882)
• macOS version: 12.1 (21C52)

Describe the bug

Folder has size of 24GB and contains over 17.000 files. Cant compress files into zip. Get error: There was some error accessing the binary "7zz" although I try to zip it and not 7z. I need to have all files in the main folder and not in sub folder.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to your files
2. Select 17.000 files
3. Right click
4. Choose Keka compress here

Expected behavior

File compress

An operation with less inputs also fails with the same message?

[itkind]

With less files it is working.

[aonez]

It seems like there's a limit of 4096 arguments in the task and your operation results in more than 17K. I'll check to workaround this one.

This build has a new option in the Finder Extension to compress the contents of the folder:

This feature only works for 7Z and ZIP formats right now.

Can't seem to find the "compress the contents here/to" options, were they removed from the final release? Thanks!

@franamati a toggle will come in the Preferences of 1.2.55 version (not in the upcoming 1.2.54).

You can use it already in this build and replace it with 1.2.55 whenever it comes: https://github.com/aonez/Keka/releases/download/dev-test-builds/Keka-v1.2.54.r4985.7z
