Help with Mac to Windows compression and decompression

Asked By Tony S Boudreau 30 points N/A Posted on - 07/19/2013

Hey guys,

I usually work on PCs although I mostly use a MAC. When I download an .EXE file (usually a driver for a PC)

 

Netscape runs it and I see a lot of machine code printed in a window. Is there a way to do a mac to windows compression rather than execute it in Netscape?

Help with Mac to Windows compression and decompression

Hi Tony,
The Mac to windows compression and decompression can be done as follows:
To Compress a folder or a file:
1) Open the ‘Finder’ window, navigate the the file or folder you want to compress
2) Right Click the item, Select ‘Compress’ from the menu
3) The Archive utility will zip the selected file
To decompress a folder or a file:
1) To decompress, select ‘file’ , Click ‘Expand Archive’
2) A window would appear, use it to navigate to the file that you want to expand
3) Select the file you want to expand, Click ‘Expand’
