These tools cover the whole life of a compressed file - extract, create, browse and inspect ZIP, RAR, 7Z, TAR, TAR.GZ, GZ, BZ2, XZ, CAB and ISO archives. Extracting and browsing run in your browser with WebAssembly, so even confidential files stay on your device.
Use the Archive Extractor when you need what is inside, the Archive Creator to bundle files, and the Archive File Viewer to look before you unpack. ZIP, TAR and TAR.GZ are built locally; 7Z, encrypted ZIP and other extra formats are built on our server and deleted automatically after a few hours.

| Format | Opens natively on | Compression | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| ZIP | Windows, macOS, Linux | Good | Sharing with anyone |
| 7Z | Needs 7-Zip or similar | Best | Smallest possible archives |
| RAR | Needs WinRAR or similar | Very good | Older downloads and multi-part sets |
| TAR.GZ | macOS, Linux | Good | Source code and server backups |
| ISO | Windows, macOS | None | Disc images and installers |
When in doubt, pick ZIP - everyone can open it. To shrink images before you zip them, use the image compressors.
ZIP is the universal choice - Windows, Mac and Linux open it without extra software. TAR.GZ is the Linux standard for code and backups, and 7Z gives the smallest files when size matters most.
Drop the archive into the Archive Extractor. It detects the format, lists the contents and lets you download single files or everything as a ZIP.
Yes. The Archive Creator bundles your files into ZIP, TAR or TAR.GZ in your browser. Drag in folders to keep their structure, set the compression level and download. Need 7Z or a password? Pick one of the server formats.
Open it in the Archive File Viewer. For format details, use the 7Z File Viewer, RAR File Viewer or GZ File Opener.
The ISO File Viewer lists the files inside a disc image and lets you extract the ones you need, with no virtual drive required.
Not for extracting or browsing - those tools run entirely in your browser with WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device. Only the Archive Creator's server formats, such as 7Z or encrypted ZIP, upload your files, and they are deleted automatically after a few hours.
Archives up to about 500 MB work comfortably, and the Archive Creator can bundle up to 2 GB in total. It depends on your device memory - for multi-GB backups a desktop tool like 7-Zip is still the better choice.
If you know the password, the Archive Extractor can usually open encrypted ZIP and 7Z files. Still having trouble? Please contact us and we'll be happy to help!
