ll.Hello PRince4, :)
When you compress a folder, everything you save into that folder should get compressed as well by default.

If you're looking for a way to make it easier to compress items, then using the context menu added by the tutorial below should help.

I'm sure your going to continue to compress files no matter what I say. But HDD's are relatively inexpensive these days and getting larger capacity every day. There really is no need to compress files.
Be aware, that if you have an issue with your HDD and you need to use Data Recovery software to recover your files, you will have a very difficult time recovering compressed files, most of the data will probably be corrupt. As opposed to non compressed files which are much easier to recover.
Sure. The first tutorial I posted below has options for compressing files or folders via the command prompt. It's the same commands used by the other context menu tutorial. :)

In reality, compression impact can vary wildly eg photos and videos hardly compress at all and can even be bigger after compress. For many users, this is the bulk of data storage.
The biggest benefit on small devices is to use COMPACTOS
