Out of memory exception while updating zip

The exact reason depends on a variety of factors, but most likely you are simply just adding too much to the archive. Try using the ZipArchiveMode.Create option instead, which writes the archive directly to disk without caching it in memory.

If you are really trying to update an existing archive, you can still use ZipArchiveMode.Create. But it will require opening the existing archive, copying all of its contents to a new archive (using Create), and then adding the new content.

Without a good, minimal, complete code example, it would not be possible to say for sure where the exception is coming from, never mind how to fix it.

EDIT:

Here is what I mean by “…opening the existing archive, copying all of its contents to a new archive (using Create), and then adding the new content”:

string[] filePaths = Directory.GetFiles(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData) + "\\capture\\capture");

using (ZipArchive zipFrom = ZipFile.Open(filePaths1[c], ZipArchiveMode.Read))
using (ZipArchive zipTo = ZipFile.Open(filePaths1[c] + ".tmp", ZipArchiveMode.Create))
{
    foreach (ZipArchiveEntry entryFrom in zipFrom.Entries)
    {
        ZipArchiveEntry entryTo = zipTo.CreateEntry(entryFrom.FullName);

        using (Stream streamFrom = entryFrom.Open())
        using (Stream streamTo = entryTo.Open())
        {
            streamFrom.CopyTo(streamTo);
        }
    }

    foreach (String filePath in filePaths)
    {
        string nm = Path.GetFileName(filePath);
        zipTo.CreateEntryFromFile(filePath, "capture/" + nm, CompressionLevel.Optimal);
    }
}

File.Delete(filePaths1[c]);
File.Move(filePaths1[c] + ".tmp", filePaths1[c]);

Or something like that. Lacking a good, minimal, complete code example, I just wrote the above in my browser. I didn’t try to compile it, never mind test it. And you may want to adjust some specifics (e.g. the handling of the temp file). But hopefully you get the idea.
