Creating a compressed folder in Windows 7

1. Open My Documents folder in Libraries.



2. Right-click on a blank area of My Documents folder.

3. In the right-click menu, select New.

4. In the side menu, select Compressed (zipped) Folder.





5. The Compressed (zipped) Folders appears in My Documents folder.



6. While it is highlighted, type a suitable name for it.



7. Next, it’s time to select files and drag them into the Compressed folder.



Note: In the newly created Compressed Folder, called Important Files, you have to choose whether to copy or move the files.
You’ll be saving hard disk space if you choose the latter as the files are zipped up.

8. Once you’ve done this, release the mouse button and when the pop-up menu appears, choose Move.


9. Windows moves the files into the Compress folder and compresses them.
