Compress Files and Folders in Windows XP

Posted by Tricker Sunday, October 18, 2009

Running out of room on your hard disk?

Need some extra space to install a new program? Don't worry, Windows XP comes to the rescue.

Both Windows XP Professional and Home Edition now include a zip compression utility that you can use to compress files and folders on your hard disk.

To compress a file or folder:

· Right-click the file or folder.

· Point to Send To.

· Then click Compressed (zipped) Folder.

This will make a compressed folder, identified by a zipper icon, which displays the same name as the file you compressed.

You can also make a compressed folder from scratch, by following these steps:

· Right-click the desktop.

· Point to New.

· Click Compressed (zipped) Folder.

· Open the new compressed folder and drag files inside that you would like compressed.
