About
CompressorX is an AI-powered compression layer for the Windows File System that offers lossless, transparent data compression for files, saving gigabytes of storage. It uses a proprietary AI model to optimize compression ratios and minimizes CPU/RAM usage, with a "set it and forget it" folder selection feature for easy use. Ideal for large games, video projects, and photo collections.

- Effectively saves significant disk space, with some users reporting over 150GB saved on their SSDs.
- User-friendly interface that simplifies the compression process compared to using command line tools.
- Works well for many games, with some users experiencing substantial reductions in game sizes.
- Long startup times, often taking 15+ minutes to load, which can cause high CPU usage and system slowdowns.
- Limited to compressing only Steam games, which restricts its usability for users with games on other platforms.
- Some users report that the compression does not yield significant savings for many games, often only reducing sizes by 1-2GB.

“I am not sure how it works, but it actually manages to save disk space without impacting performance.”
“Lightning fast and light on resources: CompressorX runs smoothly in the background, with minimal CPU and RAM usage.”
“Powered by advanced AI, CompressorX delivers unbeatable compression performance.”
“The first being there is some performance loss in some games and some games may straight up fail to update.”
“Instead, it uses a smarter algorithm so that it actually manages to save disk space without impacting performance.”
“My testing so far is limited, but performance does not seem to be affected on compressed vs non-compressed applications.”
