Full Backup Smaller than expected

Hi,

If I make up backup of a database with SQL Managment Studio it is about 4.2 gb with SQl after unzipping it it is 2.3gb.
I tried to review my settings on this page but it does not seem to work I have tried 4 different browsers https://sqlbak.com/academy/full-backup/

I have full backup ticked, Un ticked, Dif, Folder and Transaction log?

I am backing up to a Nas and the backup log says all is well any ideas.
