We all know that these compressed (makes smaller) files are a pain if we want to convert them into another type of file for example an mp3 file. A quick and easy way to change these files is by going to winzip. You can either buy it or download it for 35 days. What they do is change the file type so that you can change it to any other file type you want. All you do is add the file/files that you want changed and it decompresses (makes bigger) it. You then extract the file into any folder and then hey presto! It's done.

Hi theweirdo666,
I might have misunderstood you but, zip files are just 'containers' allowing you to compress a single file or a group of files.
The file(s) would need to be unzipped (extracted/uncompressed) to use them - they will just return to their normal file type.
i.e. a Word document will be '.doc' before and after zipping.
Remember since that Windows ME you can create or unzip/extract zip files in Windows without using a third-party application like Winzip. So nothing to install or buy.
Using the right-hand click menu in Windows you can 'Send To' 'Compressed (Zipped) Folder'. This will automatically create a zip folder with the files you selected.
Or you can create a new 'Compressed (Zipped) Folder' and drag all the files you want compressed.
Along with compressing files it also allows you to attach a group of files in a single email attachment which can be handy.
