Below is a review of the 7z format and the software used to handle files like "g.7z."
For exceptionally large files, the format allows for "splitting" into multiple parts (e.g., .7z.001, .7z.002), which is useful if you are working with storage limits like FAT32's 4 GB cap.
“7zip splits large archive into separate parts which don't have their own headers. Only the first part starts with 7z header...” sourceforge.net · 7 years ago
The 7z format is widely considered one of the most efficient open-source compression methods available.
While powerful, it is not "native" to Windows or macOS in the same way .zip is. You must download third-party software like 7-Zip or PeaZip to open or create these files. Community Perspective
