When trying to import a version for Quantum Break with Live Series included, server hangs on executable picking stage:

No server side error.

This might be a weird edge case there are really a ton of files (stupid Live Series), north of 500k, size of 170 gig+, even synology explorer takes a while to count them.

If you want any additional info lemme know.

If you have an idea for a workaround, like specifying the executable in db directly etc. I'd be much obliged.

Holy shit.

If you're comfortable with API clients, you can import a version via the API, and it'll let you specify the launch command via a string: https://developer.droposs.org/web/import#portable-import-version
