I'm trying to compress a folder using 7-zip 19.00 x64 under Win10 10.0.14393 and the compression always ends at 9% with an error: "Data error (cyclic redundancy check)" -- translated from ita

The issue always appears on the same file, that is a git archive contained into a .git directory of a git repository. That file is named pack-some-cryptic-hex-sequence.pack and it is 2.088.625.928 bytes long.

I'm not currently using that git repo - the file has been last updated in 2018 and I also killed TortoiseGit to prevent any actions from it. Nevertheless the error raises, regardless of the compression level.

Thank you.

    Such an error can arise if there are problems with the storage device. Can that file be copied?

    The windows returns that error.
    So the windows probably can't read that file in your case.

      Gosh, you are right. The problem is the file itself.
      I'm getting worried about this SSD, never had such a problem on an 'old' hard disk drive.
      Thank you.
