    Not sure if this is related, but FAT32 doesn't support files over 4GB.

    very good point, are you 100% sure the filesystem on the USB pen is NTFS

    Edit: if your OS is Win

    It´s a good point Addis, the drive is FAT32 and I alreday formatted NTFS but it can not acepted. I open the drive and I found out that it has a 4GB Chip. I got scammed.
    Thanks anyway!!
    Regards.
