What is a .S00 file?
A .S00 file is a type of file known as a ZipSplitter Part 1 File. It is created using a software called ZipSplitter, which is made by Lithops Software. This software is used to break up large files into smaller parts, making them easier to store on devices with limited storage space like floppy disks, or to send over email, which often has size limits for attachments.
The .S00 file specifically is the first segment of a larger file that has been split. For example, if you have a big video file or a large document, ZipSplitter can divide it into smaller, more manageable pieces. These pieces are saved with extensions like .S00, .S01, .S02, and so on, depending on how many parts there are.
To use the split files again as originally intended, you need all the parts of the file, including the .S00 file. There is also a special .EXE file created by ZipSplitter; when you double-click this .EXE file, it combines all the split parts back into the original, complete file.
If you come across a .S00 file and need to open it, you should use the ZipSplitter program from Lithops Software. This is the designated software for handling such files, ensuring that the split files are correctly managed and restored.
