Extract TAR.GZ Archive

Decompress and extract TAR.GZ and TGZ archives directly in the browser.

How to use

1. Select a .tar.gz or .tgz archive.
2. The browser decompresses the GZIP layer and safely extracts regular TAR files for downloading.

About these formats

TAR.GZ combines a TAR archive with GZIP compression. Both operations are reversed during extraction.

Browser limitations

Only USTAR regular files are supported; links, special entries and nonstandard archive extensions are rejected. Extraction safety caps apply.
