When files containing large amounts of information are compressed or zipped, they are moved and forced into a smaller space to conserve memory and protect the file(s).

Ideally, the zipped file will be smaller than the file that is compressed to make it easier to transfer. The file can later be decompressed, and the file will be the same as it was before.

What happens when files that contain large amounts of information are zipped or compressed?

You can no longer view these files, but they will take up less space on your hard drive. If you want to view them again, just unzip it (pretty much the same way you zipped it). Compressing files is good for sending them to someone, or if you need more space on your hard drive. It gets smaller.
