About TAR and ZIP
TAR bundles many files into one uncompressed archive and preserves Unix file permissions.
ZIP opens everywhere — Windows, macOS, Linux and every phone — with no extra software.
Why convert TAR to ZIP here?
- 100% private — conversion runs in your browser with WebAssembly; files never leave your device.
- Completely free — no sign-up, no watermarks, no per-file charges.
- Real re-packing, not renaming — the archive is unpacked and rebuilt as ZIP so the result opens cleanly.
Frequently asked questions
Will converting TAR to ZIP lose my files?
No. The contents are extracted from the TAR archive and re-packed into ZIP. File contents are not altered — only the container changes.
What if my TAR file is password-protected?
Enter the password in the options panel and the converter will decrypt it locally during the conversion.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no server limit because nothing is uploaded. Very large archives use your device's memory, so keep huge files reasonable.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion happens entirely inside your browser — your files never leave your device.
