What does MFV mean in GENERAL

An MFV is a Multi File Volume - a single computer file containing multiple files and the information to access them. It functions like an archive format, but can also be treated like a regular disk drive.

An MFV works by aggregating multiple files into one single computer file, which includes the necessary file system information for accessing them. This means that when mounting the MFV, it will appear to the OS as if it were located on any other storage device or partition.

Using an MFV has several advantages compared to other storage methods. For example, since all files are stored in one place within the volume, they can easily be backed up or shared much more quickly than having to manage multiple files separately. Additionally, since it can be mounted like any other disk drive, no special software or hardware is needed in order to access or extract its content.

Yes - most modern operating systems are able to mount and use an MFV just like any other partition or storage device.

Yes - because all files are stored together in one location, there is less risk of data leakage since only one source needs to be secured rather than multiple sources simultaneously. Additionally, since only authorized users will have access to the volume itself (and thus its contents) malicious actors will not be able to gain access either.
