each folder the user creates in the CS327 software, there is a set of these files. These folders and files
are stored in C:\program files(x86)\Artos Engineering\CS327GUI\Folders\

These files are in binary format, they are not man readable and they are not compatible with any other
format. The structure of these files can change when upgrading the CS327 software. For these reasons
the files listed above should not be used as a means to transfer data.
