Now the Archive Utility doesn't have anything going on by itself right away. So Command Space and I can find it there pretty easily. So I'm going to run the Archive Utility by searching for it in Spotlight. That's actually kind of a useful thing because you can run that on its own and you get some more options. Now you saw there was that Archive Utility. But compressing word processing documents and some other types of documents may actually reduce the file size by quite a bit. jpeg is a compressed image format so you may find that zipping up a jpeg saves almost no space. Of course the third reason is that it compresses it so it can make things smaller. Also sometimes you may want to send multiple files to somebody and you see it's easy to zip up multiple files where sending an email with a whole bunch of files as attachments may be confusing for the receiver. An image my display rather than download for instance. Sometimes email apps or even downloading from a web browser can cause complications with certain type of file. One is to be able to send it somebody without any complications. There are three main reasons you may want to compress something. If I look in it I'll see all the contents there all decompressed and ready to use as normal. So actually if I were to name it something different you can see it's just going to take the name from here and create a folder with that. Then what you get is a folder that's the name of the zip file. Watch you'll see it quickly appear here in place of the Finder as the app that's running. What happens is will actually open it in something called the Archive Utility. Just double click on the file like you're going to open it in something. Now to decompress it's even easier than that. I can select a whole arrangement of different things and compress them all into one archive. I can even select multiple folders and then it will compress both those items. I can Control click it and Compress and I get the entire folder compressed. Then I get both of those saved to a single file. I can quickly hit the Return key and rename it whatever I want. Then you get something named Archive.zip. Then Control click either one of those and it will say Compress 2 items or however many items there are selected. Now if I want to do that with multiple files I can select one file and then I'll select another one holding down the Command key for a multiple selection. If I select that I will get the same file there but with dot zip after it. So look for the option Compress and the name of the file. All I need to do is use the Context menu which I can get to with a two finger click on my trackpad or by Control clicking on a file and then I get the option to Compress. Just as easily you can decompress any zip file that you receive by email or download. This is also known as zipping the files because the zip format is mostly used for compression.
