.VFS Type 1
The file includes everything stored on HDD or any other storage medium. You can use it to create a virtual file system, hence a VFS extension. With its help, you can browse and search files faster.
If you insert a memory card to an AIO HP printer, then a VFS file with the .HPIMAGE.VFS file name may appear on it whenever the “Faster Browsing” option is active. If you want to prevent the creation of this file, navigate to “Preferences,” then choose “Enable Faster Browsing” and select “OFF.” That VFS file saves .JPG thumbnails. Those image thumbnails are used to navigate through images on the printer’s display faster.
NOTE: Whenever you want to mount VFS files as a VFAT file system on Linux OS, use the -o loop option command.

.VFS Type 3
Software similar to VideoMakerFX and Explaindio has animated slides that can be saved as VFS. It keeps them in a compressed format. That way, it stores resources that make up a slide, including graphics, audio, and textures. To create marketing videos, business slides, and product evaluations, you can prefer VFS files.
VideoMakerFX and Explaindio can create and open VFS files. The relationship between these two apps and the VFS file is similar to that of .PPTX format and Microsoft PowerPoint. In cases where you intend to send VFS files to those who don’t have the specified apps, choose a format that is more widely used.
