             Summary: File plugin on Windows reads entire file into memory when only a small fragment is requested on `readAsBinaryString`
                 Key: CB-13208
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13208
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: cordova-plugin-file
    Affects Versions: 6.5.0
         Environment: All Windows UAP applications
            Reporter: Samer Albahra


`readAsBinaryString` for `FileReader` on Windows is reading the entire file to a buffer then slicing the requested fragment causing the app to crash due to out of memory errors. It should instead be using a stream which seeks to the requested start position and only reads the requested length.
