Research direction

Reproduce the issue by dragging a 30 MB JAR into the Files field, then try string search and the "+" or "-" buttons beside the Extract checkbox. Trace the JAR-loading, search, and Extract-control entry points from the observed failure. Done means the JAR contents appear, searches respond, and changing Extract no longer crashes the application.
