Answer 1

some files like images and movies and audio can't be compressed and some exe files which r already compressed can not be compressed

u can use "uharc" program to acheive better compression

Answer 2

It depends on what you are trying to compress, if it is video then you will get very little compression because video such as AVI and Mpeg and others are already highly compressed. If you wish to send this file over the Internet and the file is too large to email you can use a program such as HJSplit to cut the file into smaller pieces to achieve this goal. Get the free HJSplit program from the link provided below. Good luck!

Answer 3

right click on the file(s) that you want to compress, click on "add to archive". Select "best" under "compression method". Some files types, however, are already compressed, like MP3's. So you can't make them much smaller.

Answer 4

what is the kind of files if it's JPeg Pictures it's already compressed by the same say that used it winrar or winzip it's cosine transform, also th mp3 files and some video files

Answer 5

Hi.

No one has asked *why* you're trying to compress whatever it is, but I'll take a wild guess: it's too small to fit to cd and you don't have a dvd burner, right?

How about this: why struggle to compress what you could merely split and burn to two cds?
