How to use the Compress Files (7Z)
- 1
Add the files or folder.
- 2
Keep 7Z · Ultra for the smallest result (or ZIP for maximum compatibility).
- 3
Press Create archive. The size saved is shown.
What compresses well (and what doesn't)
- Huge savings: text, CSV, logs, code, SQL dumps, Word/Excel XML, BMP/TIFF/RAW images, uncompressed WAV.
- Almost nothing: JPG, PNG, MP4, MP3, ZIP, PDF with images. They're already compressed. Use the Video Compressor for videos instead.

Frequently asked questions
7Z or ZIP?
7Z is usually 10–40% smaller, but the receiver needs 7-Zip or this site to open it. ZIP opens everywhere.
Why didn't my photos get smaller?
JPG and PNG are already compressed. Archiving them mostly bundles them into one file.
