Drag and drop of large file fails

I have VMWare Player 7.1.4 build-3848939 on Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit.

I created a VM running Ubuntu 16.10 32 bit (with all updates and vmware tools).

Then I dragdropped a large file (7GB) into the Documents folder. Everything seemed fine, but then I noticed the destination file was only 184320 bytes big.

There was a correct copy of the file in ~/.cache/vmware/drag_and_drop/525ed2c1-c8b1-d3e2-e8d6-628905d57fed/

Versions of the vmtools:

Mware Tools daemon, version 9.9.5.55150 (build-3735633)

See attached manifest.txt

Regards,

David
