windy_city.dat is too big for DVD5 even after strong compression. The solution is to split it into smaller parts and this converter makes it for you.
You no longer need windy_city.dat but its slices (windy_city.dat.001 and so on) therefore windy_city.dat is added to excluded files.
Before creating data2.cab, converter splits windy_city.dat, so, if everything went smoothly, you should have five slices in data_win64\worlds\windy_city folder.
But sometimes, converter can't gain full access to system folder (e.g. Windows, Program Files etc.) due to UAC function. In this case writing slices of windy_city.dat into system folder is forbidden.
The solution is to run converter with administrative rights, or simply move game folder outside system folder (e.g. to c:\watch dogs)
Remember you don't need to recreate all cab files - leave proper one, and (if exists) delete those you want to recreate (in this case data2.cab and data3.cab).
Ufff...

thanks for the help, i do the convertion with the parameters that you say, in c:\watch dogs and with permisions of administrator, and uac inactive. always perform the convertions, in that way, i dont think that is the problen, but i do the convertions again, and post the results, thanx again.

theres another important question, the converter use c:\ hdd or the hdd that is descomprese? because in c:\, i install original watchdogs, and i dont have much space.. but i have another hdd, with a lot of space, theres is the place, that i use for the convertion..i mean for TEMP files.. maybe that is the problem, if the temp files it should be in c...

No, the TEMP can be anywhere, irrespective of the game folder. Of course you need at last 18.3 GB for conversion files in TEMP and 5.3 GB for slices in game folder.
So maybe the best solution is to move game folder to another disc (e.g. e:\wd)?

PS. don't quote post if it's just above

When the converter ends, do you have windy_city.dat.001 to 005 next to windy_city.dat in game folder?
Give me entire log here.

sorry, i delete the folder , at the time i look your post.. but i tell you, when i check the log, it seems perfect. not errors.

in the last convertion i decided, not delete nothing, and when the convertion ask me if i want to overrite the existing files, i say no, so the converter skip the files, the only file that overrite is the data3, and after that, in only a second, the convertion finish..

the data3.cab it still remain in a size 1kb..

Delete files windy_city.dat.001 to 005.
Move game folder to disk where you have at last 5.5 GB of free space.
Run converter
