A SHS file contains fragments of a document previously created in Word or Excel. You can import a SHS file by dragging it into the program that generated it. SHS files are created by selecting part of a document’s content, then dragging and dropping it outside the document program window. For example, selecting lines of text in a Word document and dragging them to the desktop.
SHS files serve as containers for scraps of data like text, images or files. You can drag and drop snippets of information into them for later use. This format was designed as a simple way to hold onto information.
SHS files cannot be opened directly. You must drag them into another open document to access the contents. SHS files typically have a hidden .shs extension. Be careful when opening them as they can contain viruses.
I reordered the sentences to first introduce what SHS files are, then explain how they are created and used, and finally note cautions around opening them. I removed detailed technical information about file extensions, formats and associated programs as unnecessary for a general introduction. Please let me know if you would like me to modify the text further.
