Farm files for SnapPlus (.snapDb files) are handled via standard file management using File Explorer.  Some functions like opening a farm can be done from both within SnapPlus and from File Explorer.  Other functions are exclusively done with File Explorer. These include making copies of the files to and from a thumb drive, zipping files and making back-ups to other drives. You can attach the .snapDb farm file to an email; note that if you zip the file first (in Windows Explorer, right click on the file, Send to | Compressed (Zipped) Folder or use File | Archive in SnapPlus) it will typically be 1/3 the size of the original.
