I cannot use Windows WebDAV to download files larger than 50 MB.

We have confirmed that the maximum size of a single file that can be downloaded in Windows WebDAV is 50 MB, and attempting to download files over 50 MB will result in an error.
Use WebUI to download files over 50 MB in size.

I cannot use Windows WebDAV to access folders configured with access rights.

We have confirmed that Windows WebDAV sometimes fails to access folders that contain a large number of files.
Use WebUI, or reduce the number of files in the folder and then try accessing the folder again in WebDAV.

I found zero byte files that I did not create.

We have confirmed that Windows WebDAV creates zero byte files when uploading files.
These zero byte files are normally deleted by WebDAV, but they sometimes can be left over if an error occurs during the upload process.
These files can be deleted without causing any issue. Confirm the necessity of these files and delete if they are not required.

If I use WebDAV, can a folder's action setting, revision setting, and so on be copied?

Use WebUI to copy settings together with files and folders.
