Creating a ZIP file in Windows 11 is straightforward, as the functionality is built into the operating system. Follow these steps:

Steps to Create a ZIP File in Windows 11:

Method 1: Using the File Explorer Context Menu

Windows 11 Context menu

  1. Select Files/Folders to Compress:

    • Navigate to the folder containing the files or folders you want to compress.
    • Select one or more files or folders. To select multiple files, you can hold down the Ctrl key while clicking each file, or use the Shift key to select a range.

  2. Open the Context Menu:

    • Right-click on any of the selected files or folders to open the context menu.

  3. Choose "Compress to ZIP file":

    • From the context menu, click on "Compress to ZIP file" (this option may also be labeled "Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder" in older versions).
    • Windows will automatically create a ZIP file in the same location as your files or folders. By default, the ZIP file will be named after one of the selected files or folders.

  4. Rename the ZIP File (Optional):

    • If you want to rename the ZIP file, right-click on the newly created ZIP file, choose "Rename", and enter the desired name.
