How to compress 1 Gb data to 10 mb

Many times our hard disk runs out of space and we have to delete some data or the other for no reason.  There is an awesome way to save the hard disk space without loosing any data.
Using this method we can convert a file around 2 Gb to 21 Mb.

How did I do it?

I used a software named KGB Archiver.

KGB Archiver , an open source compression tool like 7zip and UHARC with an unbelievably high compression rate .It uses AES-256 encryption (one of the strongest encryption known for man) to encrypt archives . The disappointing thing with KGB Archiver is due to its high compression rate its minimum hardware requirement is high ( recommend processor with 1,5GHz clock and 256MB of RAM ) and compression and decompression process is time consuming.

Its strength: Very high compression power with very accurate results and no loss of data.

Its weeknss: Due to high compression , the time required to compress and decompress the file is high. High system requirement
