Compressed vs. uncompressed refers to the format of the public key. The private key is the same, but when converting to WIF, a 0x01 is appended when a compressed public key is intended.

If KxULHn3XGW9HaGZLGrkgfxDfLGogn7s9iB31pTdXeQmsRQFV6CE1 is the compressed WIF, then the uncompressed WIF is 5J6jtNzDJ79g6j3Lmpya1DWby2KHGCyg8Wv26KGXWKXZGZtrqMu. You can use this page to see them both: https://iancoleman.io/bitcoin-key-compression/

All the current SegWit scripts are created using only the compressed public key, if you use the uncompressed one your funds will be lost.

Hi,

How to calculate the WIF that gives you uncompressed Segwit P2SH: ?

I don't understand what you try to achieve.

What do you mean by "uncompressed segwit P2SH" ? That you pay to the hash of an uncompressed public key ?
