This will open a dialog asking where to save the split files and what size to split them to.
just enter the size you need in the box.

Press Ok when youre finished.
Now, just wait a few moments while 7-Zip splits your file into nice, smaller files.
So much for file size limits!
What do you do with these files?
Youll need to convert them back into the original file.
Right-press the first file with the extension .001 and select Combine Files.
7-Zip will detect the other files, and ask where you want to save them.
Press Ok to combine the files, and seconds later youll have your original file again.
