Open file size limitations

By default, KONNEKT limits the size of files, that you open on SharePoint or read from SharePoint:

  • KONNEKT will not open files, that are bigger than 1 GB

  • KONNEKT will open files in read-only, if they are bigger than 500 MB

Changing the open file size defaults

You can change the thresholds for "open file size" via registry keys. This may be a good idea, if you are restricting the cache size.

Please be aware, that this is about the file sizes, that KONNEKT is opening/reading from SharePoint Online.

It is not about the size of files, that you are writing to SharePoint Online.

Read-only threshold

Value name: OneDriveOpenFilesLargerThanReadOnly Value storage location: HKCU\SOFTWARE\GlueckKanja\Konnekt Value type: DWORD Value unit: bytes

Files which are larger than this size are opened read-only on OneDrive and O365 accounts.

Default: 512 * 1024 * 1024 bytes = 500 MB

Block opening threshold

Value name: OneDriveDoNotOpenFilesLargerThan Value storage location: HKCU\SOFTWARE\GlueckKanja\Konnekt Value type: DWORD Value unit: bytes

Do not open files which are larger than this size on OneDrive and O365 accounts.

Default: 1024 * 1024 * 1024 bytes = 1 GB
