What is a .S02 file?
An .S02 file is a piece of a bigger file that has been cut into smaller parts to make it easier to move or share. This type of file is specifically the third part in a series of split files. Imagine you have a large puzzle; the .S02 file would be like one section of that puzzle. This splitting is done using a program called ZipSplitter, which is made by Lithops Software. The reason someone might want to split a file into parts like this is if the original file is very large. Large files can be hard to send over the internet or store on devices with limited space. By splitting the file, each piece becomes smaller and more manageable.
The .S02 file could be a part of any kind of larger file, such as a big compressed file (.ZIP) or a video file (.MOV). However, to use the .S02 file, you need to put it back together with its other parts (which are usually named .S00, .S01, and so on). To do this, you need all the parts of the split file and a special .EXE file that ZipSplitter creates when it splits the original file. By double-clicking this .EXE file, ZipSplitter will automatically combine all the parts back into the original, complete file.
If you come across an .S02 file, you will need the ZipSplitter program from Lithops Software to open it or put the original file back together. Without ZipSplitter and the other parts of the file, the .S02 file won't be much use on its own.
