FAQ

Are encrypted TAR archives supported?

TAR has no native encryption. If your .tar is wrapped in gzip (.tar.gz) or another compression, decompress first with a tool like 7-Zip.

Does my archive upload to a server?

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly and Web APIs. Open the Network tab in DevTools while you convert — you'll see no outbound traffic carrying your file.

Is this really free?

Yes. No signup, no quota, no upgrade tier. The conversion runs on your machine, so it costs us nothing to host.

Is there a archive size limit?

Browser memory is the only ceiling. On a modern desktop browser, a few hundred megabytes works fine. Mobile devices have tighter limits.
