==== Compressing and Decompressing Files with 7-Zip ====
 +
 +
* The 7-Zip file compression software has been installed on the computers in Seaver 120.  (If you want to install this software on your own computer, go to the [http://www.7-zip.org/ 7-zip Download page].)  To compress a single file or a group of files, do the following:
 +
*# Select all of the files you want to zip together by clicking and dragging or control-clicking on the filenames.
 +
*# Right-click on your selection.  In the context menu that appears, select the menu option: 7-Zip > Add to archive
 +
*# Make sure there is a meaningful filename in the field under the word "Archive:".  If not, change it to something that is.  Typically you will want to include your name or initials, a short descriptor of what the file contains, and the date in year-month-day format (yyyy-mm-dd).
 +
*# Select "zip" as the Archive format.
 +
*# You do not need to change any of the other defaults.  Click OK.  The zip file will appear in the same folder as the files you compressed.
 +
* To decompress files with 7-zip, right click on the file icon.  From the context menu that appears, select 7-zip > Extract Here.
 +
** Note that Windows Explorer will allow you to view the contents of a zipped archive without actually decompressing them.  It may even seem like you can open them or otherwise manipulate them.  However, issues will arise from doing this, most commonly, not being able to save your changes.  Always make sure that you decompress (unzip) the files before using them.
