Several replies pointed to using a third‑party splitter/archiver. As noted, many tools exist; and mentioned archivers with built‑in split features and described an archive "split" option. Below is a clear, free method that works on modern Windows and stays simple for the person receiving the files.

Install 7‑Zip (7-Zip). In the 7‑Zip GUI or from Explorer, add the single 60 MB setup to an archive and set the volume size to 10M (this creates self-contained parts that the archive program will reassemble on extraction). Example command-line:

7z a -tzip mysetup.zip -v10m mysetup.exe

This produces files like mysetup.zip.001, mysetup.zip.002, etc. Choosing ZIP format increases compatibility; choosing 7z gives better compression and built‑in integrity checks. Optionally create a self‑extracting archive (SFX) if the recipient cannot install an archiver.

To reassemble/extract: open the .001 part with 7‑Zip and extract normally. For raw splits (if a tool produced .001/.002 that are just byte chunks), join them in CMD:

copy /b mysetup.exe.001+mysetup.exe.002+mysetup.exe.003 mysetup.exe

Troubleshooting & cautions: all parts must be in the same folder and named sequentially. Extraction fails when a part is missing or damaged. Many mail hosts block .exe attachments — use an archive/SFX or a cloud share instead. Verify integrity by testing the archive in 7‑Zip or by comparing a checksum of the recombined file. This approach keeps transfers manageable and avoids manual manual concatenation pitfalls.

hiya jeevaa i have done this many times before but not using winzip i use winrar it allows you to specify how big you want the file spilt size to be. Or you could try using a program called HJsplit although this one isnt as ideal as Winrar it wil still do the job you want.

WinZip v12 does this and you can select the option from the menu when you drag files to be zipped onto the WinZip pane.

You can choose the Zip split size. It'll need WinZip 12 at the other end.

You want to Zip your 60 MB file to 10 mb separately

you are already install Zip software on your computer now you can zip your file to write click on the file and chose option Add to archive
now you can see Split to volume option. you can choose number of size in bytes
