- Description
- Comprises of texts, hyperlinks, and images that make up help documentation saved in HTML format. They provide help solutions that can be viewed on web browsers.
- A 7Z file is a type of compressed archive that uses the open-source LZMA compression algorithm to reduce the size of the file. This type of file is often used to store multiple directories and files in a single, compressed package. 7Z files can also include strong AES-256 encryption for added security. They are commonly created using the 7-Zip utility developed by Igor Pavlov.
