Drop the archive onto the page, or click to browse for it — .rar, .7z, .tar.gz, .zip and more.
If the archive is password-protected you are asked for the password; it is used only inside your browser.
Every file inside is listed with its folder path and size.
Click the download button next to any single file you need.
Or click "Download all as .zip" to get the whole archive repacked as one ZIP that opens anywhere.
Someone sends you a .rar or .7z and Windows or macOS just shrugs — the built-in unarchivers only speak ZIP. The usual fixes are installing 7-Zip or WinRAR, or worse, uploading the archive to some extraction site. This tool is the third option: libarchive, the same engine behind many desktop unarchivers, compiled to WebAssembly and running inside your browser tab. Drop the archive, see every file inside, and download exactly what you need.
It reads the formats that actually show up in the wild: RAR (including RAR5), 7Z, TAR and its compressed variants (.tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar.xz), plain ZIP, ISO images and CAB files. Password-protected archives prompt for the password and decrypt locally. Grab files one by one, or take everything repacked as a single standard ZIP your operating system opens natively.
100% private“Archives often hold exactly the things you would not upload to a random website — invoices, backups, source code. Here the archive is read by WebAssembly inside your browser tab: no upload, no server, and the password for an encrypted archive never leaves your machine either.”
RAR (including RAR5), 7Z, ZIP, TAR, TAR.GZ/TGZ, TAR.BZ2, TAR.XZ, LZ, ZST, ISO and CAB — everything libarchive reads. If a file refuses to open, it is usually corrupted or an exotic variant; try repairing or re-downloading it first.
No — this tool extracts. Creating RAR archives requires a proprietary license, which is also why almost no free software writes RAR. If you need to pack the extracted files back up, the "Download all as .zip" button gives you a standard ZIP, the format everything opens.
Archives are extracted into browser memory, so the practical ceiling is your device’s RAM — a few gigabytes on a desktop is normally fine, while very large archives on a phone may fail. For multi-gigabyte archives, a desktop unarchiver remains the better tool.
Yes — encrypted ZIP, RAR and 7Z archives prompt for their password, and decryption happens inside your browser. A wrong password is reported as exactly that, so you can retry.
