The UberGuidoZ repository ist greater than 2.3GB. it could be a or blem with some 32bit unzip programs.
This is just an assumption from an issue I’ve got a few days ago (not Flipper released). Your request has too less information to identify what the issue could be.

  • What did you tried to download? The whole repository? Bad Idea, use gut client instead.
  • What size has your downloaded file? Is this plausible? 4kb would be a little less, even for 2 files (one file wouldn’t be zipped).
  • Have you tried it again? Maybe the downloaded archive is corrupted.

Some malware scanner or proxies have the habit to open and repack archives. So this error could not be reproduced by anyone else.

What leads to my last question: What is your used URL?

First of all, thank you very much for the help
I tried to download all the files it came down to a 643 MB zip file
I tried to download several times and it didn’t work
I disabled the antivirus

Yeah, as written before, this repo is too big for reasonable handling via zip. We even don’t know if the error happens on the github servers or on your local system.
I do not try to zip this repo.

Just use any git client for your operating system.

Even when you’ve have had all files downloaded in any way, you need to organize them. You can’t just copy it to SD and hope for the best. In fact you can, but I wouldn’t recommend this.

Do you know if there is an option to maybe download a certain folder? I just don’t see an option there

Could you please tell me how to download via git, thank you very much

No, I absolutely can’t.
Because initially the question was (translated to the problem) ‘why can’t I download up to 4GB in a zip?’ … Okay, I understand there are people who don’t know this. That is the reason why I answered in the first place.

Meanwhile it seems to me the goal is just to have a lot of file on the flipper to … why? I don’t see any idea or concept. Just to have it? Not enough for me.
I don’t think this is a Flipper related question, anymore.

Even if I would try:

$ apt install git
$ mkdir git && cd git
$ git clone <url to repository>
$ cd <last part of url>

It is just that easy, but I assume you don’t know what a repository is. I even think you are not using a debian based Linux distribution. But I don’t know, as I wrote above:

It is not that hard to google for a named software (git client for ) read the documentation of this software and maybe try another one, if this won’t suite.
Sorry, I don’t see any task here, beside copy’n’paste a manual. Normally people pay me a bunch of money, to do this for them - and than I don’t ask questions. Before you get the idea to offer money, this is not the right place for such contracts.

I’m sorry, I really didn’t mean to bother you like that
I’m just new to flipper and didn’t know it wasn’t that related
I googled a bit and used GIT waiting for the results thank you very much anyway and sorry
Have a good day
I wanted to download everything and after that just filter what is needed and what is not because I was less comfortable downloading some parts and I was also unable to download some files
