ApowerCompress

When you want to make some room on your hard drive but don't want to give up any data, a good solution is file compression. This is usually done by archiving (or zipping), but it can also be done by directly transforming a file into a smaller usable version of itself.

The process can be especially useful for multimedia files, which tend to have a size directly proportional to their quality. So if you really want to keep most of your movies and pictures on your PC, but don't feel like buying an external drive, then you could try using ApowerCompress.

Key Features:

• Compresses images, videos, and PDFs


• Three compression settings - Size, Normal, and Quality


• Selection of output resolution for video files (up to 1080p)


• Fast and versatile tool

Even if you never used a file compression app before, you won't have any trouble understanding how ApowerCompress works. ApowerCompress is more of a tool for casual users, who don't really need pictures or videos with huge resolutions. Thankfully, not all the compression methods you can choose from have a noticeable impact on your files' quality.

Images and PDFs can be compressed using one of three settings - Size, Normal, and Quality. By selecting one of these options, you basically tell the program to either make a file as small as possible or to keep as much of the file's original quality. Video files only have the Size and Quality options, but the application also allows you to select the output resolution for your new files (up to 1080p).

Even if it's limited to only some multimedia files, ApowerCompress is still a fast and versatile tool that can be very useful when you want to share your videos or images on various websites with file size limitations. However, if you're just looking to save disk space, then you'll probably do just as well with one of the many free file archiving tools that are easily available.
