  • CompactGUI

    Transparently compress active games and programs using Windows 10/11 APIs

  • Look into compact. Or the tool compactGUI. It uses windows inbuilt compression which doesn't impact performance noticably. The less well optimised a games files are the more space you get back. For many games you get nothing, maybe couple mb per gb. But for things like Ark? Install went from 186.5gb to 68.8gb. Runs just as fine no problems. But takes up a third of the size so it's absolutely noticable and demonstrateable that filesizes are in certain circumstances a result of lazy dev work

  • Compactor

    A user interface for Windows 10 filesystem compression

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
