Copying Compressed Files
Greetings,
I already tried asking this in Microsoft Answers.
I would like to use the compact command before copying files to an external drive. However, I've run into two problems:
First, it seems that Windows automatically decompresses files before copying them, and tries to compress them again at the destination.
Second, my external drive doesn't support NTFS. I think it might be using the EXT4 file system.
Is it possible to compress files before copying them to a backup drive?
Thanks,
Shane.
