They share AV engines.īecause it has an ID suffix of "-gen" there might be several more detect it. It will take a minute or three to upload/scan the file depending on server load etc.Įxpect G-data and Avast to detect it. This is a multi-AV scanning site, basically a way of obtaining about 44 "second opinions" on the file. What you've done is pretty much exactly how I would have proceeded, too. So, does this look like a false/positive situation? I then ran avast against that exe file and "it did not find anything wrong with it". make sense?Īnyway, what ended up being created was this very small exe file. The file creation again and this time allowed it to go to completion by letting avast allow it. At first I performed blocking the exe from beingĬreated and then noticed that the avast window stated that even if I allowed it- the infected file would not run so I performed and of course it wants to know what to do. large one.Īs soon as Gsplit attempted the creation of that exe file avast brought up the waring screen that a virus has beenįound (note the thread title). These files to a third party the Gsplit exe combines the split files back into the orig. No problem.Īs part of the option of Gsplit it also creates a very small exe file so that when you give/send or ? Then I ran it against a large data file I have splitting it into smaller files. I downloaded and installed Gsplit from their home site and installed it.
It is particularly useful when you need to divide large files in order to store them on external disks, and the software app is certainly a nice alternative to compression tools.After reviewing various areas to try to find a solid/safe app. The bottom line is that HJSplit is a great tool for splitting and joining files of any size. The program uses a small amount of system memory. Furthermore, the Checksum function calculates and lets you copy the MD5 checksum of any file you input. It says whether any two selected files have the same length or not. But the file itself is unusable without the last part.Ĭomparison mode and checksum calculations Since the third part is not located in the same root, the joiner will append ".joined" to the output file name (which contains only the first and second part). The joiner requests you guide it to the first part. When joining two or more files, make sure they are all placed in the same directory, as HJSplit automatically finds them.įor instance, let's say you have split a file into three parts, but only two of them are in the same directory. In order to split a file, you must select the source file, output destination, and split file size (in KB or MB). There are four main functions here: split, join, compare, and checksum.
Four features to tinker with: split, join, compare, and calculate checksum The interface is minimalistic, and you can clearly see that both rookies and advanced users can play with HJSplit.
Plus, it is important to mention that your Windows registry doesn't get bloated with unnecessary entries. Since this makes it portable, you can directly run HJSplit from any external device. The software utility does not need to be installed, so you can simply run the executable file. HJSplit is a tiny but powerful application that splits and joins files of any type.
