I am downloading many folders and then splitting them into 1 Gb folder in windows OS. Right now, it is a manual process. Is there any windows command/program to split all the files into 1Gb folder?
You have the command split
split -b1G your_filename part

Using 7z to unzip a 50 GB file that contains about 600,000 files, the speed of extraction dramatically drops as the number of extracted files increases. It takes approximately 20 hours to unzip the entire batch.
I wrote a Linux script that runs in parallel to the 7z process. It moves unzipped files to another directory so that the 7z target directory never accumulates too many files. Doing this dropped the total time to about 30 minutes.
While this works, is there a better way to do this? Preferably built into 7z?
Running on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS
7-Zip [64] V16.02
I have a 7zip file that I need to split into several smaller files so that I can put it on a FAT32 flash drive. However, unzipping it requires more space than I currently have. How can I split the 7zip file into several smaller files so that I can later unzip them on another computer?
You can use the split command to partition the file bytewise
split -b bytesize xyz.7z
To merge, simply run:
cat *
on all the pieces.
I have a windows for /F command that works perfectly well on files up to 2gb but simply does nothing and proceeds to the next command when they are over 2gb
I have searched for documentation regarding a limit but I can not find any - can anyone confirm that this is a real limit?
Assuming that it is I need to copy a file deleting the top three lines - any ideas (the for command is pretty slow anyway).
Yeah, I believe for /F has a 2GB limit. I think your best bet is to use sed from gnuwin32. Google for gnuwin32 sed and click the first result. Download the binaries zip file and extract the contents of the bin folder somewhere in your path.
The appropriate command is as follows:
sed "1,3d" oldfile > newfile
This should be much faster than a batch for loop anyway.
I want to compress a folder and its all content through command line. It should be similar to when we compress some folder in windows 7 64 bit.
By right click any folder -> send to -> compress folder.
Is there an equivalent to above process of compressing using command line. I want it through command line as I want to create an batch file.
I can't use any third party tools.
Nativelty? No, but you can use things like 7-Zip which has command line utilities. 7-Zip is free by the way, and does not need to be installed.

Well, I found a few things you could try with PowerShell:

This has Command Line and PowerShell solutions :

try compact or zip. Compact creates a compressed file while zip is identical to what you are doing folder -> send to -> compress folder
I have a zipped folder which contains thousands of zipped folders contained in itself and that goes down the hierarchy, I have to unzip each and every file and place it in a single folder.
This task is platform independent either on windows or in linux.
Your help would be highly appreciated. Thankyou.
