Unzip it to any folder. Run makebatchfiles. Follow instructions of the setup program. Uninstall Instructions. Open 'Control Panel'. Click 'Uninstall a program'. Select 'Make Batch Files'. Click 'Uninstall'. I've never done any scripting on Windows but now I need to write a batch file that downloads a file off the Internet amongst other things. If it was Linux I would use wget. Is there a built-in executable that will download a file to a given directory? This needs to run on Windows XP. This is done to make sure the command prompt can find the application.
This guide will use pre-prepared batch files. These files will compress all of the contents from the dedicated folder into a zipped archive, and include the date of compression in the archive name. It will also move the zipped archive to the storage folder, while removing the source files optional. Zipdir will be the name of the location that contains the source files, and movedir will be the location to which the batch file will transfer the archives. Just follow the guide exactly and you will be zipping faster than ever before!
REM Extract commandline. I want multiple sources to be zipped while running the batch file and then be moved to the same destination. A separate subfolder must then be created for each source location. Glad it worked for you.

It works great. This is exactly what I wanted. Run the batch file by double-clicking on your bat file within your 'My Music' folder. After you double-click on the bat file, the windows command prompt appears and 7zip begins to do its thing. The windows command prompt disappears when all compressed folders are created. You should now see them inside your folder. Verify the validity of your compressed folders.
To do this, highlight them all and click the right mouse button. If you installed 7zip in its default setting, you'll have its menu incorporated in the Windows shell.

Keep your batch file for future use. DO NOT run as administrator. Just double-click from within target folder will do the job. If 7-zip is installed somewhere else in your system, find its location and replace it in the code.
You can use the batch file to compress any folder, not just music folders.
