Add Self-Joining Functionality to the split files set

File Splitter and Joiner lets you add Self-Joining functionality to your pieces. When File Splitter and Joiner split your file into pieces, it can make a Self-Joining program (true Windows executable file). This small program can join the piece files together to restore the original file. If you want to rejoin the pieces later without this software, please mark the checkbox for “Add Self-Joining Functionality to the split files set”.

Select the Maximum sizes for the single parts

You can choose the maximum size for the single parts from the proposal list, including Floppy disk(1.44MB), 100MB Zip(TM) disk, 1GB Jaz(TM) disk, and 4.7GB Single-layer DVD. Or you can enter a user-defined file size using the arrows in the User-defined file size field. As soon as the file size is selected, it will tell you how many pieces of files will be created.
