Chop can split files greater than 4GB; we have personally tested 12GB files.
Has 18 quick set sizes for common media formats like CDs, DVDs and USB flash drives.
The output size can be set by size or number and a slider bar is provided to assist you to find the desired balance.
Output can be in the form of a "Chop" file (.chp) or as a simple file chunk.
File chunks are un-chopped using batch files (.bat) which are compatible with any Windows version.
Chop files allow the usage of extra Chop functions including CRC, encryption and adding a des cription.
Whatever output format you choose Chop can be used to Un-Chop the>
files. Chop can also be used to Un-Chop other files providing they are numbered in the same way that Chop does.
The encryption function uses a simple 32 character XOR technique. This is not very secure and is designed only to prevent casual viewing of any personal data.)
CRC is used to detect file corruption. In Chop file mode this is handled automatically (if enabled) and will notify you of any differences found.
Chop has the option of being associated with .chp files to make un-chopping easier.
Files can also be Chopped and Un-Chopped via command line instructions.
Multi-user setups are supported and Chop will run without any problems on a low privilege system and Windows Vista.
Chop is written in 100% Assembly Language and is very small and memory efficient. The program itself is around 60KB!
Chop can be run from a USB key and does not even need to be installed. Simply select "Extract" from the installer and then copy "Chop.exe" wherever you want!
