Compress Files and Folders in Windows XP

Compress Files and Folders in Windows XP
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.

* 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.
