How do I compress a large file?

AppleParkWay

Community Answer

Right-click on the file you want to compress. On Windows, this is done by right-clicking, and on Mac, by tapping with two fingers unless you're using a Magic Mouse, which requires right-clicking. From the drop-down menu, select the option to compress the file or create a ZIP file.
