Reduce the size of an archive easily and quickly to ultimately divide the size by 3!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

To further reduce the size of an archive that we could make with WinRar, we will use another even more efficient compression tool!<\/p>\n

It is very useful to reduce the volume of an archive because it will save time when uploading it or sending it to someone. This tip is therefore very useful for people with a small internet connection.<\/p>\n

Some people already know it, others don't, or some people know it but don't necessarily use ultra mode in order to reduce the size of their archive as much as possible. The software is none other than 7zip, it is a very small software that installs in one click and does not take up any space on your PC.<\/p>\n

The format of the created archives will be ".7z<\/strong>"obviously the recipient will not necessarily need to have 7zip on their PC to extract the archive, WinRar, which everyone knows and has, allows you to extract the contents of 7zip archives!<\/p>\n

In itself, the trick is very simple, we just have to add our file to the archive then choose the compression mode Ultra<\/strong>, this is only one option, but you still need to know that if you stay in classic mode the result will not be the same at all!<\/p>\n

I would like to point out that compression is not always 3 times more effective, for some files the size of the archive will be divided by 2 or a few times less, but it will still always be less than compression with WinRar.<\/p>\n

You will need 7zip which you can download at THIS LINK<\/a>or simply follow the link in the video description on YouTube.<\/strong><\/p>\n
