I have a large number of files that I need to reduce to a manageable size. The thing is that I am not very familiar with compressing files even though I have heard people talk about this technique countless times. Please help me to understand the process required to compress files into a smaller size.

Compressing files is one great thing you can do to save space on your hard drive. By compressing, you are putting one or more files into one single container file and the combined size of the files decrease. This is different from merging files because with merging, you combine the contents of the files into one.

Like when you merge two or more JPG files, when you view the output file, the image appears like one long picture. When you compress files, you put them in one single file but they remain as individual files just like when packing canned goods in a box.

When you merge files, the size of the output file becomes bigger while when you compress, the size becomes smaller depending on the type of the files you are compressing. File types like videos and software installers are already compressed that’s why when you compress them with a file compressor, expect the size to be the same or a little bigger.

To compress files, you can use one of the following file compressors:
