Open a tar.gz file on Windows
tar.gz (.tgz) files from Linux and macOS are awkward on Windows. Pullzip opens them in your browser, shows the file list inside the inner tar, and extracts them safely.
- Supports tar.gz, tgz, tar.xz, tar.bz2
- Shows the inner tar file listing
- Symlinks and path traversal are blocked
- No install, nothing uploaded
Questions
Can Windows open tar.gz natively?
Recent Windows can, but Pullzip also shows the inner listing, a safety check and a preview, in your browser.
Do I see the files inside the tar?
Yes. Pullzip decompresses the gzip and lists the inner tar contents.
