Visual Interface for the Windows 10 Compact Function CompactGUI is a standalone GUI to make using the Windows 10 compact.exe function easier to use. This allows games, programs and other folders to be compressed transparently (i.e they can still be used normally) with no performance loss. This is similar to the NTFS-LZNT1 compression built-in to Windows (Right click > Properties > Compress to save space) however the newer algorithms that CompactGUI use were introduced in Windows 10 and are much more efficient, multi-threaded, and designed for use on executable programs resulting in greater compression ratios with almost no performance impact. Those with older HDDs may even see a decent performance gain in the form of reduced loading times as the smaller files means it takes less time to read programs and games into RAM Copyright Snapfiles.com

This is a caveat regarding the program 3 stars by jealexander1950990 Feb 16, 2018 (Read all my 5 reviews)
There is no information as to how it will affect the readwrite values (wear and tear) on an SSD. It also seems to have issues with games and with Windows 10. One should only use this software if one is willing to take a risk. It may also increase CPU usage in Win 10, especially on SSDs. show Review details
