Same issue: iBotPeaches/Apktool#3198

Looks like it's an issue with JDK 20, JDK 11 didn't have this issue. -Djdk.util.zip.disableZip64ExtraFieldValidation=true temporary fixes the issue, so I guess I'll add option to allow everyone to add custom arguments for Java

You can clone and modify the source if you want, but I will take care of adding custom arguments

Or you can try to downgrade JDK to older version. I recommended JDK 17 (TLS)

Thankyou so much for amazing tool il try your suggestions after i reach home and test and update to you here

[AndnixSH]

I have added option to use custom JVM arguments and added the arguments from the script. Just enable it in the settings

Here is test build of APKToolGUI.exe
APKToolGUI.zip
