1. The first thing to do if you want to zip a file or folder is to open File Explorer.
2. Locate the file or folder (files or folders) you want to zip. Once you are able to do this, select the file or folder and right-click. A list of options will be displayed; click on the "Send to" option and click on the Compressed (zipped) folder.
3. In the event that you have more files or folders to zip, you will need to first select the files or folders, then right-click and click on "Send to" then Compressed (zipped) folder. If you don't know how to select the files, all you need to do is to click on the first file, then hold the control key while you click on other files.
3. For easy identification of the zipped file, try to rename the zipped file or folder. However, you may not need to do a thing since a filename will automatically be used for the file.
