I have logged this as P1 regression Bug #2200 https://bugzilla.audacityteam.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2200 Uncompressed exports in formats that have no (realistic) size restriction fail the 4GB trap for WAV & AIFF Wow, the developr who made ther 4GB error trap has already picked this up and fixed it....

It seems to me that in recent updates to Audacity (I don't know exactly when) somebody forgot that caf files do not have a 4 gb limit. I consider this to be a bug that should be fixed. I am minded to agree with you. I just tested on W10 with the latest 2.3.3 alpha and indeed a large project (7 hour...
