What are Compressed Old Files - re: Disk Cleanup

's Computer Specifications

First, when NO compression is set for ANY folder.

Why does Disk Cleanup still show Compressed Old Files?

What comprises these Compressed Old Files?

And, yes, I know about the "Older than 50 days" option.

Because you can compress Files individually. If a file is not used for
whatever period of time is set, CleanUp will offer to compress them,
simple as that.
