The file hpu4prop.bin belongs to software Hewlett-Packard hpu4prop from Hewlett-Packard. This file relates to a process that is installed by Hewlett-Packard into the computer, which is a Macbinary encoded file. The compressed Macbinary file hpu4prop.bin is commonly used for transferring Macintosh files over the Internet, which ensures that the Macintosh resource fork and data fork are kept in one file. The Macintosh resource fork is a construct of the Mac OS operating system that is used to store structured data in a file, alongside unstructured data stored within the data fork. The data fork contains what is generically called a file in the PC, which is the text created by a word processor or the pixels building a picture. The resource fork is organized as a database that allows for a fast access to all components of a stream, which is an advantage for some applications. Some elements of the fork may be changed or replaced without disturbing the rest of the fork.
