7Z is an open-source archive format developed by Igor Pavlov for the 7-Zip utility. It uses LZMA and LZMA2 compression algorithms which typically achieve significantly better compression ratios than ZIP, making it popular for software distribution, game mods, and large source code archives.
Common encounters with 7Z files include:
If you also work with images packaged inside archives, you may find these useful: EXE Icon Extractor pulls icons out of Windows executables, and DLL Icon Extractor does the same for DLLs. For raw image inspection, see our File Viewers hub.
Walk through nested folders with breadcrumb navigation. Expand and collapse the tree as you go.
Find any file by name across the entire archive without unpacking everything first.
Open text, code, and image files inline. See what is inside before deciding to download.
One click decompresses every file and packages them as a single ZIP with a branded README.
Password-protected 7Z files work too. Passwords stay in your browser and are never transmitted.
Everything runs in your browser via WebAssembly. Safe for source code and confidential archives.
Upload your .7z file to this page and the contents are extracted in your browser using WebAssembly. No 7-Zip, WinRAR, or any other software needs to be installed.
Yes - click Extract All as ZIP at the top right of the viewer. The tool decompresses every file in the archive, preserves the original folder structure, and packages everything as a single ZIP with a README inside. You can still download individual files one at a time using the download icon next to each entry.
No - everything runs in your browser using WebAssembly. Your 7Z files are never uploaded, which makes this safe for private archives, source code, and confidential documents. Still need help? Please contact us and we'll be happy to help!
The viewer handles archives up to 500 MB comfortably in modern browsers. Larger files may work but parsing can be slow depending on your device memory. For very large archives, the file list loads quickly even if extraction takes longer.
Yes - if the archive is encrypted, you will be prompted for the password before the file list is displayed. The password stays in your browser and is never transmitted anywhere.
This page is tuned for the 7Z format. For other archive formats, visit our Archive Viewer hub which routes you to the right tool for ZIP, RAR, TAR, GZ, and other archive types. To create new archives, use the Archive Creator.
