How to Zip/Compress a File
When you zip or compress one or more files in Windows, in attempts to shrink the file size(s) by reducing the amount of unneeded space. Compressing a file is particularly useful when you attach files to an e-mail message and wish to keep the files size as small as possible. It also is useful when you compress multiple files simultaneously, because Windows compresses the multiple files into a single file. You can compress a file or folder by completing the flowing steps:
Locate the file(s) or folder(s) you want to compress. If the files or folders you wish to compress are located in multiple locations, it might be helpful to first move them so that they are in a single location.
Select the file(s) or folder(s) you would like to compress. If you are selecting multiple files or folders, click the first one and then hold down the ‘Ctrl’ key while you select the remaining files and/ or folders. Once you are finished making your selections, release the ‘Ctrl’ key.
Right-click the selection to display a shortcut menu, point to “Send to” on the shortcut menu to display the Send to submenu and then click “Compressed (zipped) folder” to create the compressed folder.
If necessary, type a new name for the compressed folder and then press the ‘Enter’ key.
