1. For Windows users. Download, extract and run WXR File Splitter. You will see a screen like this:
2. Click on the Open WXR file button to Browse and Select your WordPress XML file.
3. Adjust the size limit for when you split your large file into smaller ones. I adjusted to 28 MBs and created 5 files. Note I recommend to changing the the size of files instead of the Total number of Files.
