What is File Compression Software?

File compression software reduces the size of files or folders to save storage space and speed up transfers. It works by using algorithms to eliminate redundancy and efficiently encode data, often resulting in significantly smaller file sizes. These tools typically support multiple compression formats, such as ZIP, RAR, and 7z, and can also encrypt archives for added security. Many include features like batch compression, password protection, file splitting, and integration with cloud storage. File compression software is essential for sharing large files, archiving data, and improving storage efficiency on both personal and enterprise systems.
