Two ways the console could crash, fixed — and RAR uploads that don't fill up your PC.

• The helper no longer shuts down your console's system UI. Reading a
  temperature goes through the PS5's system UI, and if that took too long
  — most likely when a game had been running for hours — the helper would
  shut it down, leaving you with a black screen and pulling the power
  cord. This is the most likely cause of the 5.2.1 lockup reports on
  firmware 12.40. It has not been reproduced on hardware, so it is a
  strong suspect rather than a confirmed fix.
• Renaming a file between two drives over FTP no longer crashes the
  console. On the PS5 this kind of rename takes the whole system down
  instead of just failing. It is now refused with a clear message — copy
  the file and delete the original instead.
• Multi-part RAR uploads tell you which part is missing, by name,
  instead of repeating advice you may have already followed.
• RAR uploads can use far less disk space on your PC. A .rar used to
  be extracted in full before anything was sent, so a 100 GB game needed
  100 GB free. Setting FTX2_ARCHIVE_STAGE_MB=4096 on the engine sends it
  in ~4 GB batches instead. Off by default — the original way is still
  better on a slow or unreliable connection, because only it can resume
  anywhere in the archive.
• New FAQ answers: moving a save between two consoles, "Port 9021 is
  not open", PS4 update packages that won't install, and the new FTP
  rename message.
• Dependency updates.
