How do I decompress a windows-compressed file or volume?

[RSDonovan]

I used the Windows Disk Clean-Up utility to compress little-used files on my hard drive. Since then I am unable to remotely access those compreesed files using Carbonite (an automatic backup system) so I would like to reverse the drive compression as it didn't save a lot of space anyway.

I cant see a way to do this! Can anyone please help?

Thanks in advance

Do one of the following:

To extract a single file or folder, double-click the compressed folder to open it. Then, drag the file or folder from the compressed folder to a new location.

To extract all files or folders, right-click the compressed folder, and then click Extract All. In the Compressed (zipped) Folders Extraction Wizard, specify where you want to store the extracted files.
