What is an S01 file

S01 files mostly belong to ZipSplitter by Lithops. S01 files are part of a multi-volume archive created by ZipSplitter.

  • Main Usage: ZipSplitter was developed by Lithops and is used to split large files into more manageable parts. This is often done to allow the file to be transferred, such as through email, as there are typically limits on file sizes when transferring data in this manner. The S01 file is the second file created by this program when splitting the original file. The first part is named using the S00 extension, while subsequent parts are named using the S01 extension, then the S02 extension, and so on. This file extension is similar to the C01 or R1 file extension, used by WinACE and WinRAR, respectively. Both of these other extensions serve a similar purpose as parts of a multi-volume archive. However, S01 files differ from these other formats as they are not necessarily parts of a compressed archive, but can be any created from any large file.

How do you open S01 files?

You need a suitable software like ZipSplitter to open an S01 file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your S01 file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a S01 file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

S01 file format:

The file format, which is the arrangement and type of data in a file, determines which program can open the file. The first characters in a file identify the file format, for example, HTML files start with the bytes <html>. However, different programs can use the same file extension. Furthermore, a file extension can be renamed incorrectly and double-clicking on it will then display an error when it is opened.
