Is there any setting I can change to be able to open the file and work
with it ?  How folks are doing lengthier captures, like multiple hours ?

Try to use the "use multiple files" option You should limit the files
to 50 or 100 megs. That should do the trick.

If you want to do this for a really long period you should consider
using tshark to write the files.
