ZipYourFiles

Page history last edited by c 8 mos ago

You may need to create an archive of your files on your computer from time to time.

If you have many files that you have worked on and need to send them in an email or make a single link, this technique will come in handy.

 

Here is a process for you to follow:

Find the file that contains all of your work on your computer

Make sure you are looking at the folder that contains the documents, not the view that shows all the documents.

Right click on the folder

Choose SEND TO

Choose COMPRESSED (ZIPPED) FOLDER

If you say yes or ok to all the prompts, your zip file should be in the same directory as the original.

If you need to save it to a different directory, you can indicate the destination in the prompts.

Open an email to yourself.

Attach your zip file to your email.

Send it to yourself

Now you can open the email and download all of your files to another computer.
