Surely you have seen shs or shb files on your hard disk. These are temporary text document files. They could be easily opened using the MS Word utility, but the latest versions of this product do not allow this.
Necessary
- Software:
- - text editor "Notepad";
- - Regedit registry editor.
Instructions
Step 1
In the latest versions of operating systems of the Windows family, files with the shs and shb extensions are used for long-term storage of the clipboard contents. Even if you enable the "Display extensions" option in Windows Explorer, files of this type will have a hidden extension. In fact, the format of these files is rather difficult to recognize.
Step 2
The primary location for this type of file is user-designated temporary folders. Because most users do not change the location of these directories, hence the main storage for these documents is C: WindowsTemp. When browsing this directory, most likely, you will encounter one difficulty - clutter with various folders, configuration files, images and other documents.
Step 3
You can try to open temporary documents using the text editor MS Word 2003 and older versions. In the 2007 release, this feature is absent, because such files may contain pages of scripts for applications being launched, i.e. viruses. But despite this prohibition, you can bypass the protection system if you know for sure that there are no data inside these files that are dangerous to the life of the system.
Step 4
The first thing you need to do is copy the shscrap.dll file from the Windows XP operating system to Windows Seven. If you cannot get it out of the system folder, for example, you have not installed Windows XP, then the file can be copied from the link specified in the "Additional sources" section on this page.
Step 5
You will also need to copy the scraps.reg file to your hard drive using the link located in the "Additional sources" block. Open Registry Editor. To do this, click the "Start" menu and select "Run". In the window that opens, enter regedit and click the "OK" button.
Step 6
In the main window of the program, import the reg-file copied from the link. After restarting the system, you can easily view the contents of the temporary files.
