I'm confused about why the original files stay where they were (files 1 2 and 3 are still on the desktop after the compressed file has been created). Does this process create a compressed copy?? Am i supposed to delete those original files?? Please help direct me.

  • @gran_turismo_fan
    @gran_turismo_fan 5 років тому

    I have a question, when you have compressed a file created. Let's say if your originals got corrupted somehow and you only have the compressed file with the contents that were original but compressed inside of the file, can you uncompress it by extracting it on your desktop (via 7-zip or RAR) as the way it was in it's original file location that is the same as usual before? Another part of the question is, will it affect image quality on images/pictures that were compressed in a file then extracted as the way it happens similarly to document files that you showcased in the video?

    Actually, to do this, one has to buy an application such as WINRAR. You should start at that point before you explain anything..... because if there
    is no compression application such as this in the computer none of this works at all .......That would save a lot of headaches for newbies ....
