How to Zip a Powerpoint File: A Step-by-Step Guide

Zipping a PowerPoint file is a handy way to reduce its size, making it easier to share via email or online. The process involves compressing the file into a .zip format, which can be opened by most operating systems. Let’s dive into how you can zip your PowerPoint presentation quickly and easily.

Step by Step Tutorial: How to Zip a PowerPoint File

Before we get into the nitty-gritty, zipping a PowerPoint file is perfect when you have a lot of images or media that make the file size huge. It’s also great for sending multiple presentations in one go. Here’s how to do it:

Step 1: Locate the File

Find the PowerPoint file you want to zip on your computer.

Once you’ve found the file, make sure it’s closed. If it’s open in PowerPoint, zipping it might not work properly.

Step 2: Right-Click the File

Right-click on the PowerPoint file.

A menu will pop up. Look for options like ‘Send to’ or ‘Compress’.

Step 3: Select “Send to” and then “Compressed (zipped) Folder”

Click on “Send to” and then select “Compressed (zipped) Folder”.

Your computer will then create a new file that ends in .zip. This file contains your PowerPoint presentation in compressed form.

After you complete these steps, you’ll have a zipped PowerPoint file that’s ready to be shared. It’ll be smaller in size, which can make uploading or emailing it much easier.

Tips: How to Zip a PowerPoint File

• If you have multiple PowerPoint files to zip, you can select them all, right-click, and follow the same steps.
• Remember that zipping a file doesn’t affect its quality; it only reduces the file size.
• You can also use dedicated compression software for even smaller file sizes, but the built-in method is usually sufficient.
• If you’re zipping a file for email, check the file size limit of your email provider to make sure the zipped file isn’t too large.
• After zipping, always double-check the .zip file to ensure your PowerPoint opens correctly before sharing it.

Step by Step Tutorial: How to Zip a File in Windows 11

Before diving into the steps, let’s understand what we’re about to do. Zipping a file or a folder compresses its size, making it easier to send through email or save on your computer. Here’s how you do it on Windows 11.

Step 1: Locate the File or Folder

Find the file or folder you want to zip on your computer.

Once you’ve found the file or folder, make sure it’s not open in any other program. This will ensure that the zipping process goes smoothly without any interruptions.

Step 2: Right-Click on the File or Folder

Perform a right-click using your mouse or trackpad.

A context menu will appear with several options. From here, you’ll be able to perform the next step to zip your file or folder.

This will open another menu to the side where you’ll find the option to compress your file or folder.

Step 4: Select ‘Compressed (zipped) folder’

Click on ‘Compressed (zipped) folder’ from the side menu.

After you click on this option, Windows 11 will create a new zipped folder in the same location as the original file or folder. It will have the same name as the original, just with a .zip extension at the end.

After completing these steps, you’ll have a new zipped folder that takes up less space on your computer. You can now easily share this zipped file via email, or store it without using up too much space.

Tips: Making the Most Out of Zipping Files in Windows 11

• You can rename your zipped folder to whatever you like by right-clicking on it and selecting ‘Rename’.
• Zipping a file can also be a great way to reduce file size before uploading to the cloud.
• Keep in mind that some files, like JPEG images, are already compressed and won’t see much size reduction from zipping.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can i zip a file that’s already been compressed.

Yes, you can zip a file that’s already been compressed, but it may not reduce the size much further.

Will zipping a file reduce its quality?

• Right-click on the file or folder.
• Choose ‘Send to’.
• Select ‘Compressed (zipped) folder’.

Zipping files in Windows 11 is a handy skill that can save you a lot of space and make file-sharing a piece of cake. Whether you’re trying to free up storage on your computer or send a bunch of documents at once without hitting file size limits, knowing how to zip a file is a must. With the simple steps we’ve outlined above, you can zip and unzip files with confidence.

Zip a presentation file

When you want to send your PowerPoint presentation to others, it’s easier to do when the file size isn’t too big. You can compress, or zip , the file in Windows, which shrinks the size of the file but retains the original quality of your presentation. You can also compress the media files within the presentation so they're a smaller file size and easier to send.

Compress (zip) a presentation with Windows Explorer or File Explorer

Open Windows Explorer (Windows 7) or File Explorer (Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, and Windows 11) in one the following ways:

Use the Windows Start menu: Right-click the Windows Start button, and select Open Windows Explorer (Windows 7) or File Explorer (Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, and Windows 11). If you don’t see the Start button, move your mouse to the bottom-left corner of the screen.

Browse to the presentation you want to compress.

Right-click the presentation, and select Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder .

Windows creates a new zip file and gives it an identical name as the PowerPoint file.

Send the compressed file to your intended recipient, who can then decompress the file just by clicking it.

Compressing media files in presentations

If your presentation contains audio or video content, you can reduce those media file sizes to make your overall file size smaller. Follow the steps at Compress your media files .

Extract files or objects from a PowerPoint file

If you want to separately use files or objects from a PowerPoint presentation, such as videos, photos, or sounds, you can extract them by converting the presentation to a “zipped” file folder. Note, however, that you can't extract PDFs or .dotx files.

The following procedure works on Windows, but not on macOS.

Tip:  We recommend that you make a copy of your presentation first, and then do the following procedure on the copy. This ensures that your original presentation is preserved.

Before you do this procedure, make sure File Explorer is set so that it shows file names with file extensions.

Make file extensions visible in File Explorer

The steps to set File Explorer (previously called Windows Explorer) to show file names with file extensions differs, depending on which version of Windows you have.

If you're using Windows 10 or Windows 8:

In File Explorer, on the View menu, in the Show/hide group, select the File name extensions check box.

If you're using Windows 11:

In File Explorer, on the toolbar, select View > Show , and ensure that File name extensions is selected. 

If you're using Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP:

In Windows Explorer, click Folder and Search Options . In Windows 7, this is under Organize . In Windows Vista and Windows XP, on the Tools menu, click Folder Options .

On the View tab, under Files and Folders , clear the check box for Hide extensions for known file types .

Open a presentation as a folder

To open a presentation as a folder, use Explorer to navigate to the folder containing the presentation that you want, and then do the following:

Click the presentation that you want, right-click it, and then click Rename .

Change the file extension ( .pptx ) to .zip . Press Enter to set the name, then click Yes in the Rename dialog box.

Double-click the zipped file to open an Explorer window for the content files.

The zipped file contains several folders, many of which contain information such as XML code or properties. Objects such as videos, sound files, or pictures are found in the ppt folder, in the media subfolder.

Double-click the media subfolder to open it, select file you want to extract, copy it, then navigate to a suitable folder elsewhere in your system, and paste the file there. 

Restore the original presentation

To restore the original presentation, repeat steps 1 and 2 in the procedure above, this time changing the file extension from .zip to .pptx .

How to Compress a PowerPoint Presentation

PowerPoint is an amazing audiovisual tool for presentations. It allows you to add images, graphs, videos, and pretty much everything you might need in order to craft the perfect complement. But precisely because of this, sometimes PowerPoint documents can end up taking a lot of space. So, how do you share your presentation when it’s just too big? Here you’ll learn how to easily compress a PowerPoint presentation to share it with whomever you want.

How to compress a PowerPoint presentation directly

Thankfully, PowerPoint has some compress options built into it, so learning how to compress a PowerPoint presentation is a very straightforward business. You have 2 main options.

1- How to compress images in a PowerPoint presentation

a. Select the image you want to compress. Once you do this, the Picture Format tab will appear at the end of your tools ribbon.

b. Select Compress Pictures

c. A new window will pop up. Now you just need to choose how much you want to compress your PowerPoint images accordingly to your needs:

Take into consideration that if you untick the Apply only for this picture option, all of the PowerPoint presentations images will be compressed. If you’re looking for how to compress a presentation will a lot of images, then this one is a great option for you.

2- How to compress a PowerPoint with a video

If your presentation has a video in it, chances are it’s a pretty big file! To compress your PowerPoint document just follow these steps:

a. Go to File > Info

b. Choose the Compress Media option. Just like with images, it will give you quality options, and pick the one that fits better your needs.

c. A new window will pop up to show you the compressing progress. Once it’s completed, it will also tell you how much space are you saving by compressing your PowerPoint media. Just click Close when the process is completed, and you can go back to work on your presentation.

Other options for sharing your presentations

However, if you compress a PowerPoint presentation you’ll probably lose some quality. The more you compress an image, the more quality it will lose. This is especially important to take into consideration if you’re planning to use a big projector, as it will make bad quality images pretty noticeable.

If compressing your PowerPoint presentation it’s just not doing it for you, of you don’t want to sacrifice some of its quality, here are some alternative options for sharing your files:

1- ZIP Files

A pretty straightforward way on how to compress a PowerPoint presentation is simply to use a ZIP File. ZIP files allow you to compress many documents into one directory. Windows 10 has built-in an option for file compressing. You just need to go to your File Explorer and right-click the PowerPoint presentation to compress. Select Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder . And that’s all!

If you’re not working with Windows 10, you can download a file archiver and compressor software, like WinZip or WinRAR (for earlier Windows versions). These will allow you to easily compress PowerPoint presentations, and pretty much everything else. There are many free compressors available, so it’s just a matter of finding the one that suits you the best.

Take into consideration that, when sending a compressed PowerPoint presentation in this way, the receiver must also have a compressor software, like the ones mentioned above. This will allow them to decompress the document and get access to it. It’s also important to know that ZIP Files might not compress a PowerPoint presentation enough for it to be sent by e-mail. It depends mainly on the size of the original file. Thankfully, there are other options for sharing your presentations!

2- Cloud Sharing

Cloud sharing is an excellent way to share files that are otherwise too big to send by e-mail. You don’t even need to know how to compress a PowerPoint to use this method. You just need to register in a cloud storage service, like Google Drive or Dropbox , and upload your presentation. Once it’s uploaded, you can send the link to whoever you want, and they will instantly gain access to it.

If it’s a particularly big document, you can even mix this option with the previous one. You can compress your PowerPoint presentation in a ZIP file, and upload the compressed version. This will make it easier and quicker for you to upload it, and for your receivers to download it.

3- PDF format

Converting your presentation to a PDF document is one of the easiest ways to compress your PowerPoint presentation in order to share it. It will immediately lower your file size and allow you to share it through all kinds of means, including e-mails.

However, one very important thing to take into account when using this method to compress a PowerPoint presentation is that you’re changing the file’s format. And this had both its ups and downs. For starters, this means that whoever receives it will not be able to access it as a PowerPoint presentation. Your slides will be converted to PDF pages, and while images and graphs will likely remain, any videos or voice notes in your presentation will not be added in the converted document.

But this also has an ad additional advantage. This means the receiver will not be able to edit it. If you’re sending a PowerPoint presentation and you don’t want it altered or copied in any way, sending it as a PDF file is a good option. It all depends on what you’re looking for!

Hopefully, you have now learned how to compress your PowerPoint presentations. Now you can share them with whomever you like, whether it is team members, coworkers, or your audience. Good luck!

Does a Zip Compression reduce the size of a PowerPoint file?

By: Author Shrot Katewa

We all come across a point in time when we have no idea how our PowerPoint file has become this one huge file in size. The worst part is that we realise this once we have completed our presentation and we need to send it to our client over an email!

Thus, we turn to the most common method that comes naturally to us to reduce the size of the file. That method is to compress our presentation file using a ZIP Compression creating a ZIP file.

But does a ZIP compression reduce the size of a PowerPoint Presentation? A ZIP compression does reduce the size of a PowerPoint file. However, it is not the most useful option as the most common reason for the big size of a PowerPoint file is the use of heavy images and videos. The ZIP compression DOES NOT affect the size of images or the videos.

Most modern formats for an image or a video such as a JPG file or an MPEG4 file already exist in a highly compressed state. Thus, using a ZIP compression tool for such file formats doesn’t really help.

The ZIP compression does reduce the size of the PowerPoint file when mostly text is used in it. But then again, if you are using mostly text in a PowerPoint file, you will most likely not need to compress your presentation with the main objective of reducing the file size.

So what should I do to reduce the size of a PowerPoint presentation?

In order to reduce the size of a PowerPoint Presentation, the most important step that we should take is to reduce the size of the images and video used inside the presentation and not necessarily compress the presentation. This can often be done using PowerPoint itself. The above video explains in detail how you could choose to compress the size of the media files used in PowerPoint.

The ideal method is, however, to make sure that you reduce the size of images even before you use it on your slides.

The above video explains how you can reduce the size of an image on the Windows operating system.

For Mac users, the file size of an image can easily be reduced by resizing the images using the default “Preview” application.

Once the image has been opened, click on the “Tools” tab. Then select the “Adjust Size” option from the dropdown menu. You will be presented with a pop-up window with the option to change the height and width of your images. You are also provided with an option to change the resolution of your images.

Remember – changing a resolution is different from changing the size of the image. We wrote a comprehensive post on what resolution should be used when using an image in PowerPoint. It gives you a detailed understanding of what is an image resolution and how is it different from the image dimensions. Be sure to check it out – https://owlscape.in/image-resolution-ultimate-resource/

When should I use ZIP compression for a PowerPoint file?

So, if a ZIP compression doesn’t reduce the size of a PowerPoint file that significantly, the question thus arises – is there even a need to use a ZIP compression for a PowerPoint file?

As it turns out, ZIP compression is great when you have multiple PowerPoint files to be sent. Instead of sending it one-by-one or separately, you can use a ZIP file to bundle all the three files together and send it as a single unit. This helps to avoid the scenario where the end-user either fails to notice or misses out on downloading one or more files from the different files that are sent.

There are also times when you need to send images that are used in the presentation along with the PowerPoint file. Using a ZIP file to send a single bundle of both images and the PowerPoint file can save a lot of trouble for the end-user.

Do I need to install any software to compress a PowerPoint file?

A standard ZIP compression doesn’t require you to install any additional software or an application on your computer. This is ZIP compression is by default part of the modern Windows or a Mac operating system.

However, there are other types of compression systems that exist such as RAR compression or 7zip compression. In order to use these compression tools, you will need to install an additional software on your computer.

There are tools like WinRAR for both Windows and Mac users which allow you to do so with ease.

How to compress a PowerPoint presentation?

The process to compress a PowerPoint file or any other file is quite simple.

Step – 1 

First, open the folder in which you have the files that you would like to compress using the default compression system built-in your operating system. I’m am using a Mac, thus, showcasing the process for a Mac OS.

Step – 2

Once you have identified all the files that you would like to compress, simply select them all and press the right click on your mouse. From the dropdown, choose the “Compress items” option.

Step – 3

Upon selecting the compress item option, you will notice that a file named Archive.zip is created in your folder. This .zip file will contain all the items in the compressed format that you intended to ZIP.

Step – 4

The final step would be to rename the file. To do so, simply right click on the “Archive.zip” once again, and select “Rename” option. You will now get an option to rename the zip file. Type in the name that you intend to keep for your zip file and you’re done!

Once you are satisfied with the choice of shade showcased in the inner circle, you can click on the “Tables/Export” option on the right hand bottom corner of the screen as shown in the image above.

Does a ZIP compression reduce the quality of the PowerPoint file?

This is probably one of the most common questions that you might have while using a compression tool like ZIP.

There are mainly two types of compressions tools namely lossless compression and lossy compression. Tools like ZIP are considered to be lossless compression types. This means that using a ZIP compression will ensure that there is no loss of data or quality of the files which are compressed and files are 100% identical when decompressed.

Should I use ZIP compression or a RAR compression? What is the difference?

Okay, this is another question that is common among people who are looking to compress the files or folders using a compression software. Should a ZIP compression be used or a RAR compression be used? Or is there any other type of compression system which is better than the two?

First things first – ZIP and RAR are not the only two compression applications available as an option to the user. However, they are the most common options out there.

Difference between ZIP and RAR format?

Both ZIP and RAR are fairly effective compression algorithms. However, there are some differences between the two – 

• ZIP format was initially released in 1989 whereas RAR was first released in 1993. ZIP algorithm is the older of the two compression systems. 
• The ZIP format will create a .zip or .zipx file type. Whereas the RAR compression usually generates .rar file format. 
• ZIP compression format is common because most operating systems offer built-in support for it. RAR format is also common. However, this requires you to use a commercial software which is not free.

So which one is better?

In an experiment conducted to verify the capability of the two compression formats, it was identified that a ZIP format was able to compress a file by 62% whereas the RAR format achieved a compression of 71%. Thus RAR was found to be more efficient and faster than ZIP format. In fact, another more advanced file compression system namely 7-zip was able to achieve a compression rate of 76% which was even higher than RAR format.

However, while both RAR and 7-zip were found to be more efficient and fast, ZIP compression algorithm has a sheer advantage with the fact that it is already built-in and comes bundled with most operating systems today. Thus, there is no need to download any additional software or even pay for its use.

In order to compress the size of a PowerPoint file, it is essential to look at what is causing the file to have a huge size. In most cases, it is found to be the heavy media used on the slides that cause the size increase. Thus, merely compressing a PowerPoint file, more often than not, will not help your objective to reduce the size of a PowerPoint file. It is better to look at how can the size of the media be reduced that is used on the PPT. I hope this post has been able to provide you with the answers that you were looking for.

Make sure to put the .zip after the existing file extension (.pptx) – do not replace it. The file now becomes a zipped folder. It’should read “filename.pptx.zip”

A zipped PowerPoint presentation

4. Now Unzip the folder to access the contents

5. click the folder “ppt” > “media”.

In the media folder you will see a list of all the image files in your presentation – jpegs, gifs, MP4s etc. Sort by Size or Compressed size , so you can see the largest easily.

Images in the Zip folder

6. Change view to large icons, or double click on the images, to identify them

Once you’ve identified which images are pushing up the MB count, go into your original presentation and reduce the file size for each image in PowerPoint. Select the image and in the Picture Format tab click on Compress Pictures.

Compress images within PowerPoint

Choose “Apply only to this picture” to keep a better control of image quality throughout. Of course you can choose to compress all the pictures but sometimes the PowerPoint compression tool can give a low quality result.

You can also delete the cropped areas of the pictures. The tool here gives a guide on recommended resolutions – we go for 150 ppi if a small file size is crucial.

Obviously you can also use PhotoShop to really keep control on image quality and size.

7. Resave your presentation and check the reduced file size

Spot the difference.

Hey presto my file is no longer massive

So that’s how you use Zip to reduce the file size in PowerPoint!

Now you can delete the Zip folder and you’re done!

For more advice on how to reduce file size in PowerPoint, there are plenty of How To videos on YouTube, like this one .

The Zip-less route

And if all that seems a bit too fidlly and faffy… you could try using an Add-in for PowerPoint to identify those large media files instead.

Slidewise is one Add-In that lets you find large images without leaving PowerPoint. The image identity feature is free. Or there’s BrightSlide too from Bright Carbon, and i-Slide as well.

Frequently Asked Questions:

1. Why should I reduce the size of my PowerPoint files?

Answer: Large PowerPoint files can pose problems when sharing via email or uploading to servers with size restrictions for attachments. Reducing file size helps in smoother sharing and distribution.

2. What is the “Zip trick” mentioned in the text?

Answer: The “Zip trick” involves making a copy of the PowerPoint file, renaming the copy with a “.zip” extension, and then unzipping the folder to access its contents. This allows users to identify large media files, such as images, within the presentation and take steps to reduce their size, ultimately reducing the overall file size.

3. Are there alternative methods to reduce PowerPoint file size besides the Zip trick?

Answer: Yes, besides the Zip trick, users can utilize PowerPoint’s built-in compression tools to reduce the size of images within the presentation. Additionally, there are add-ins available, such as Slidewise, BrightSlide, and i-Slide, which can help identify and manage large media files within PowerPoint presentations.

How to create clean PowerPoint slides

One of the simplest ways to transform your presentations from heart-sink to happy is to keep your slides clean of unnecessary words and data. TIP 1: Make one, simple statement on each slide and use the remaining “space” for a visual that explains and clarifies. And that’s it. No more tips.

A classic mistake presenters make, is to pack their slides full of words, which they then read to the audience. Unless your audience is very young indeed, they can read for themselves. Reading to them can be seen as annoying and slightly insulting.

Make the most of your presentation hand-out!

The best way for your presentation to support your spoken words, is through one short message per slide and a relevant, supporting visual. Your narrative can then bring the presentation to life using the terminology and examples which your audience relate to.

How to make presentations more visual… and why you should

Can flexible working increase productivity?

The current office environment – typically getting to the office at 9am, staying til 5.30pm, working in an open-plan office, and spending most of the day sitting still – is about the least productive environment we could possibly create. That’s according to scientific research…

Get your PowerPoint visuals right: get creative!

Visuals are powerful - get them right! The danger, if you use an irrelevant or inappropriate visual, is that it will distract and confuse – basically doing more harm than good. Rather than adding depth and clarity, the wrong visual could send your audience wandering off on a completely unrelated trains of thought. 

How many slides is best for a presentation?

If you need advice on how many slides you should have in your deck. Think about it from an engagement point of view. Audiences would rather see 30 light slides that you move through quickly (keeping things more interesting for them), than 10 slides that are chock full of data and that don't seem to ever move on... Don't fear the count. Fear what's on them!

How much do people remember from a presentation?

There have been various studies conducted on this, and the most generous results we’ve seen are as follows: Immediately after the presentation, the audience remembered 50% of what was said By the next day, the audience remembered 25% A week later, the audience remembered just 10%

Using stories in PowerPoint boosts memory (part 1 of 2)

Structure your PowerPoint presentations with stories and your audience is more likely to follow, understand and remember your message – and they’re more likely to enjoy it too!

Harness the power of Stories in presentations to help audiences recall your presentation (part 2 of 2)

Start your presentation with a story about how a certain problem is relevant. Ideally this is a problem that affects your audience, this way you grab attention and engage with emotions immediately. Using further anecdotes and stories throughout brings each point more vividly to life.

How do you make PowerPoint more visual?

If your presentation is full of slides packed with bullet points and blocks of text, your audience’s attention will drift and you risk losing them, perhaps for good. A picture is worth a thousand words. So we must make PowerPoint more visual. Visual information is 3 times easier to remember than spoken info.

How to Embed ZIP Files in PowerPoint

If you are creating a complex PowerPoint presentation and want people to be able to double-click an object on your slide and view multiple files and folders, you must embed a ZIP archive into your project. PowerPoint enables you to add one or more of these archives with ease, and you can then drag the ZIP file around the slide to position it anywhere you want.

• Launch PowerPoint on your computer.
• Create or open a presentation.
• Select the slide where you want to embed the ZIP archive by clicking on it in the left pane.
• Click the "Restore Down" button in the top-right corner of the PowerPoint window, next to Minimize.
• Open the Start menu and click "Computer" to start the native Windows 7 file manager.
• Use the file manager to locate the ZIP file, but do not minimize the PowerPoint window.
• Drag and drop the ZIP file from the file manager window onto the PowerPoint slide to embed it. You might have to move one of the windows first to see them both side by side.
• Click and drag the ZIP file icon around to place it anywhere on the slide.
• Expand the File menu and click "Save" to save your presentation.
