    Let's say you have 2 songs in your desktop, named "song1" and "song2" respectively.

    What you need to do is, create a new folder, by right-clicking anywhere in the background of the desktop > New > Folder.

    Once you've created a folder, highlight both songs, "song1" and "song2", and drag them into the newly created folder. OR you could have the newly created folder open, right-click on "song1" > Copy, go to your folder, and right-click > Paste it there, and doing the same for the other song.

    Once you have all your files in one folder, right-click on the folder > send to > compressed (zipped) folder.

    That's it, you have a zipped folder that contains number of files. "song1", "song2" and whatever other files you wanted to zip.

    When uploading, depends on whether it's through web or email, just make sure you browse through, to your zipped folder and upload.
