Bridge can't write XMP metadata to TIFF files >1GB

Soooooo, I tried to bug report this over at the uservoice site, but the login links there appear to be totally broken. As the subject says, if a TIFF file exceeds 1GB, Bridge (2020 and 2021 at least) can no longer write keyword/metadata updates, reporting "The file xxxxxxxx.tif cannot store XMP information." Re-saving the file with different compression to get below 1GB works around the problem, if possible. This certainly seems to be a bug, since I can write the XMP tags using other software.

    Negative. That setting does not impact the "cannot store XMP information" bug.

    Apoligies, this does seem to work, though I had to actually go the individual files and purge the cache there, rather than using the global purge, for... some... reason.
