Frequently asked questions
Is the ZIP uploaded anywhere?
No. The archive is read and extracted in your browser, and nothing is sent to a server.
Can it open RAR, 7z or .tar.gz files?
No, only ZIP and ZIP-based formats. For .gz and .tgz files use Gzip Compress & Extract, which gives you the inner file.
Why are the file names garbled?
Archives made on older Windows systems store names in a local code page instead of UTF-8. The tool guesses the encoding, and you can switch it under File name encoding, for example to GBK, Big5, Shift_JIS or EUC-KR.
Can I extract password-protected ZIP files?
No. Encrypted entries are marked with a lock and cannot be extracted here; unencrypted entries in the same archive still work.
How do I keep the folder structure when extracting?
Use Extract all to a folder… and choose a destination; the button appears in browsers that allow saving to a folder, such as Chrome and Edge on desktop. Elsewhere, Download selected as ZIP keeps the structure inside a new ZIP.
Are there limits on previews?
Text files show their first 512 KB, and files over 100 MB are not previewed. You can still download them.
