Virtual Hard Disk or VHD acts like a normal hard drive built into your computer. Cool thing is, it comes in a form of a single file so you can make a copy of it and virtually attach it to any other Windows computer.
Zip files are compressed archives containing documents, images, folders, basically any type of files on your computer. We create them to save space and make them more practical for sending via email or file sharing services.
You have more people using one computer and you don't want them to be able to shut it down using a shutdown button on Windows logon screen, this is how you remove it.
