SHS file format stands for Shell Scrap Object Files. These file formats are used by Microsoft developed applications for embedding text or other objects in other file format.
Generally this file format is created when a text is copied from one document file type and is pasted to another document file type. The text or the object is saved in the clipboard and Microsoft Windows clipboard creates an SHS file which saves the text or object that is saved in clipboard. When the text is no longer needed, it is usually deleted by the operating system (in case of cut and paste).
In addition to the problem described above, i.e. the lack of the appropriate application to support the .SHS file, there may be several reasons that cause problems with opening and operation of the data format:
A quite common problem is the lack of application in the appropriate version. Even if you have an application, with the help of which you should open the .SHS file, you may have a problem with it because of its version. Perhaps in previous versions the application has not yet supported the .SHS file, so download the update and check again.
If you have already installed the appropriate application, and it is the correct version, the file may not open correctly, because the operating system does not have information that this program supports the file. So you need to "show" which program the computer should use. To do this:
It also happens that the file you want to open is corrupt and therefore there is no such possibility. In this situation, you should find its different version, or ask a person from whom you got, to send it again.
There may be several reasons why you cannot open the file with .SHS extension. Directly on this website you can find a solution of the most common problem with the .SHS file – that you do not have on your computer the appropriate program to open the file.
