Programs used to perform the conversion from shs file to xlsx format.
Typically, .shs files were generated in previous versions of MS Office programs (Excel, Word etc.) when the user dragged certain elements to their desktop. An icon was created for the scrap file on the desktop and the file saved in default Windows\Desktop subfolder.
Users usually try to convert these old .shs back to their documents or spreadsheets (such as .xlsx), however this is actually not possible. At best, you would need to the drag these files from desktop back to their respective programs and save the document. A conversion however, is not possible.
Unfortunately, there is no detailed software record in the database for this conversion.
