About archive tools
These free ZIP and archive tools help you open, build and manage compressed files without installing extra software. Extract ZIP and Extract tar gz let you browse an archive and save the files you need, while List archive contents shows what is inside before you extract anything. Create ZIP and Create tar bundle files for sharing or backup, and Password protect ZIP adds a password before you send an archive.
For large uploads or email limits, Split file breaks a big file into parts and Join files puts them back together. Bulk rename tidies file names in one pass. When choosing between ZIP and tar, use ZIP for Windows and Mac users and tar or tar.gz for Linux servers and developer workflows.

Common questions
Are my files uploaded when I extract a ZIP?
No. Extract ZIP, Extract tar gz, Create ZIP, Create tar and Password protect ZIP run in your browser. The archive is read on your device, so its contents are not sent to our server during extraction or packing.
Can I extract an encrypted ZIP file?
Some encryption methods may not be supported. Run List archive contents first to see what the archive holds. If a file cannot be opened, the tool reports it instead of producing a damaged copy, and you can try the desktop app that created the archive.
What is the difference between ZIP and tar.gz?
ZIP compresses each file separately and opens natively on Windows and macOS. A tar.gz file bundles files into one tar archive and then compresses the whole bundle with gzip, which is common on Linux and in software releases.
