What Is a Zero Byte File?
A zero byte file is a data file on a computer system, hard drive or other storage device that has an actual length of zero bytes. In many cases, a zero byte file is created because of an error — such as an interrupted network transfer, software crash or improperly written file handling routine — during the creation of a file. Other times, a zero byte file is created intentionally to send a message to a user viewing a file directory, to reserve a directory or filename to control automatic processes, or to indicate some immediate state or information to a program. There is a technical difference between a zero byte file whose file size is actually zero bytes and a file that contains no generated data, such as a document file with no textual content that still could contain metadata or other information from the program that created it. Occasionally, especially when a zero length file is created through an error, deleting a zero byte file can be very difficult because the corrupted file prevents the operating system from directly manipulating the file.
