    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    File Managers internal editor storage management had a fault
    where the mechanism for releasing of editor storage for reuse
    was being incorrectly deactivated.
    

Problem conclusion

  • File Manager has been updated in order to trigger the reuse of
    editor related virtual storage, allowing commands to run to
    completion for large (larger than available region) files as
    intended.
