In this video, I'll show how to create ZIP files on Windows, on both laptop and on PC. Making ZIP files is an important skill in order to lower folder size and help organize your folders. In the video, you'll learn how to create ZIP files, how to access them, how to add more files and how to delete files from the compressed folder.

PART 1 - CREATE AN ORGANIZED FOLDER
For all the files you want to zip.

1. Right-click anywhere
2. Move the mouse to "New"
3. Choose "Folder"
4. Move all the files you want to zip into the new organized folder

PART 2 - CREATE A COMPRESSED ZIP FOLDER
In some computers, the options may appear to you in one form, and in other computers the options may appear in other form. For this reason, I included in the video both ways. Watch the video to know how to compress files depending on which options appear to you in your PC.

5. Select all the files
6. Right-click on any of them
7. Click "Show More Options" (like I show in the video)
8. Click on "Send to"
9. Select "Compressed Folder"

OR

5. Select all the files
6. Right-click on any of them
7. Click on "Compress To"
8. Select "ZIP File"

After, you can open the folder by right-clicking it, and add more files to the compressed folder. You can also delete files if you want.

00:00The first thing we need to do is to organize all of the files you want to zip into an
00:05organized folder.
00:06Right-click anywhere, go to New and click Folder.
00:13Let's call this Organized Folder.
00:17Now move all of the files you want to zip into the new folder.
00:28Now go to the folder you created, select all of the files you want to zip, right-click any of
00:37them, click to show more options, move your mouse to Send To and select Compressed Folder.
00:52And you can call this Compressed File.
00:56In some cases you can select all of the files, right-click any of them, and you have the option
01:03to Compress To and you can choose ZIP File.
01:12This is another way of compressing files.
01:16If you pay attention to the size of the files, you'll notice that the compressed file is slightly smaller than
01:24the original files.
01:26With larger files and larger quantities of files, this difference can become higher.
01:32You can double-click the compressed folder to open it.
01:36After you open the compressed folder, you can still move new files to the compressed folder by moving them.
01:43However, this may not appear in real time, so you may have to exit the compressed folder and open it
01:50again for the new file to appear.
01:55Likewise, if you want, you can also delete files from the compressed folder.
02:00Just select the file, right-click it, and click Delete.
02:05And choose Yes.
02:08The importance of the compressed folders is to allow you to make the folder size lower, and to help organize
02:16your files.
