: Multi-volume archives are primarily used to bypass file size limits on specific file systems (like FAT32) or email attachment restrictions.

The file extension signifies the first part of a split 7-Zip multi-volume archive . When a file or folder is too large for a single transfer or storage medium, 7-Zip can divide it into sequential segments labeled .001 , .002 , .003 , and so on.
