About this tag
The zipping tag covers discussions about compressing and decompressing files on Windows systems. Common topics include the missing 'Send to compressed folder' option, issues with corrupt files after zipping, and recommendations for free zipping applications that support formats like .zip and .rar. Users also seek help on how to zip files for troubleshooting, such as attaching dump files for BSOD analysis, and how to avoid automatic zipping when backing up to external drives. The tag reflects practical problems and solutions related to file compression in Windows environments.

    Windows 7 Unable to zip folders and files
