      I can open this file ok, used the same version as yours for the test:

      Notepad++ v8.6.4   (64-bit)
      Build time : Feb 20 2024 - 00:12:59
      Path : C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
      Command Line : C:\TEMP\NPP\zdb.mrk
      Admin mode : OFF
      Local Conf mode : OFF
      Cloud Config : OFF
      OS Name : Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021 (64-bit)
      OS Version : 21H2
      OS Build : 19044.4170
      Current ANSI codepage : 1250
      Plugins : 
          mimeTools (3.1)
          NppConverter (4.6)
          NppExport (0.4)
      

      Will try your build of Win11 later.

        I successfully opened it also on the Win11 22H2 (I do not have your 23H2 available).

        So it is something specific on your PC. We can eliminate the possible problem with a N++ setting by downloading the portable version equivalent, which does not need to be installed, but just unzipped into a folder and then run the notepad++.exe from there. Then, if you are able to open that zdb.mrk in your portable N++, the problem lies with your N++ installation. Otherwise the problem is probably outside the N++ control (a Windows setting, installed app or shell extension, AV, storage place problem, etc…).

          sorry for me, that my answer arrived You very late. but there was too much jobs with family ;-)
          ok. I think, I will see my problem and can explain it.
          1st: thanks to @Coises , who gave me hint with Sc1.
          Yes! with Sc1 I can open without problems m ymrk-file with 3GB content.
          This talks to me, the propblem is based on my machine. but where?
          some days have gone
          deInstall and install N++ at new. and very certain: on another machine (why? it depends from appdata\roaming\notepadd++ . there resides config.xml

          I’m shure, here was my problem:

          old (not working since 2 weeks WITH 3GB file) config.xml:
          <GUIConfig name="largeFileRestriction" fileSizeMB="4096" isEnabled="no" allowAutoCompletion="no" allowBraceMatch="no" allowSmartHilite="no" allowClickableLink="no" deactivateWordWrap="yes" suppress2GBWarning="yes" />
          

          new (working) config.xml
          <GUIConfig name=“largeFileRestriction” fileSizeMB=“200” isEnabled=“yes” allowAutoCompletion=“no” allowBraceMatch=“no” allowSmartHilite=“no” allowClickableLink=“no” deactivateWordWrap=“yes” suppress2GBWarning=“yes” />

          I think last line brings me good results. all works.
          again: last line was my solution. Yes I know, there are some "misunderstoodings":
          isEnabled="yes"   and  fileSizeMB="200" . very unlogical. but it works!
          
          Thanks for all, who has helped me.
          Yours Klaus

            Congrats, you’ve just uncovered a N++ misconfiguration bug (as you have already found with the Sc1.exe test - this is not a Scintilla issue but a N++ one):

            npp-3gb-mrk-loading-fail-issue.png

            I’ll try to fix it but no ETA.

                @xomx great! glad, You have found an error. a misconfiguration bug.
                I will wait for v8.6.6
                than I can report some issues with speed. I want to prepare a comparison between n++ v8.6.6 and Vedit 6.2(64bit). more than later. 1st I will wait vor v8.6.6
                Thanks for Your good job!
                yours, klaus

                  my problem is solved. thank You for all!

                  in Notepad++ v8.6.6 Release Candidate:
                  http://download.notepad-plus-plus.org/repository/8.x/8.6.6.RC/
                  Change log:
                  Fix crash when crossing the 2GB file size threshold. (Fix #14944 , #14981 )

                  it works. great!
                  who is intested in: how looks a big file, opened with notpad++ v8.6.6(RC1)
                  notepad-8.6.6-RC1.jpg

                  its a interesting file ;-)
                  2,9 GB. including text in 67 Mill lines! mainly ascii

                  ok. some certain stuff:
                  my config.xml has this content
                  <GUIConfig name=“largeFileRestriction” fileSizeMB=“200” isEnabled=“no” allowAutoCompletion=“no” allowBraceMatch=“no” allowSmartHilite=“no” allowClickableLink=“no” deactivateWordWrap=“yes” suppress2GBWarning=“yes” />
                  and with these settings I have my colors back!
                  colors? I have changed "userDefineLang.xml. that I can see some special content, with “alarming colors”. You will it see in the picture. for me are the content very very certain, it begins with $0 or $a or or or.

                  ok. this all is very good for me! Thank You so much! ;-)
                  in next days I will do some tests. and publish them here!
                  notepad++ have to load a unknown file with approx. 3GB data. or with 11GB.
                  those big files are very welcome at me. I must do my work with them.
                  and without good tools it is VERY uncomfortable.
                  last 5-10 years I do my work with notepad++.
                  and for very very big files I do use -just now- VEDIT v6.2 as a 64bit. but notepadd++ is more comfortablier! ;-)

                  I remember: 5-10 years before, I only have used (former BRIEF) CRiSP. (and I think its known well from old dos-times.)
                  but just now? it seems CRiSP exists. but I don’t want take business with them, I have had “monetary” problems with the folks. Does anybody know more about CRiSP ???

                  Yours very, Klaus Lehmann

                    @Klaus-Lehmann said in Big files cannot opened in v8.6.4 (x84):

                    VEDIT v6.2 as a 64bit. but notepadd++ is more comfortablier!

                    Why don’t you use the 64-bit version of Notepad++? It’s the same as the 32-bit version you are using. The only downside may be if you need a specific plugin that is only available as a 32-it version then, yes, you would need to use the 32-bit Notepad++.

                      sorry, I’m an idiot. Of course I do use an 64bit-version.
                      as I was beginning this discussion on march 23th 2024, I have used a very wrong “title” or “RE”: “Big files cannot opened in v8.6.4 (x84)”. This is wrong!
                      every time I have installed and I’m using this “npp.8...Installer.x64.exe”. really.
                      Does there exist an admin, who can change the titel? It would be lovely. thanks a lot. Yours Klaus
