    If you're comfortable working on the command line, upload and use the 'unzip' command to unzip them.

    If not, unzip locally and then transfer. You probably aren't saving that much with compression as the major image formats (PNG, JPG, etc.) already are compressed. It's a little more headache as you have every file transfer overhead.

    I am uploading now folder.zip to server. 2gb images from my wordpress 4 years old website. And images are sort by years and months in folders. It will take me 2 weeks to upload manually.

  • were you trying to upload 2gb through a browser? there's may be a browser post limitation, try upload with ftp

    Just use SFTP to transfer the file to your server.

    Login through shell.

    Change to the directory where you uploaded the file.

    Unzip.

    Profit.

  • If you have an ssh access, then use it and unzip it as other members said here. If not, it's time to ask for support from you provider

    I suspect your 2GB is just bigger than Plesk expects and it's not going to work. I recommend either following some of the suggestions in this thread or contacting your provider for help.
