Compressing Folders
You can save a lot of hard drive real estate by compressing folders that contain large files. Compressed folders work the same way as any other folder. Here’s how:
1. Right click the folder you want to compress.
2. Select Properties (from the context menu).
3. Click the General tab (if not already selected).
4. Click Advanced Attributes.
5. Place a check in the check box to the left of Compress Contents to Save Disk Space.
6. Click OK, or press the Enter key.
