About the Unzip Online (ZIP, TAR, GZ Extractor)
Unzip Online opens compressed archives without installing WinRAR or 7-Zip. Choose a ZIP, TAR, TGZ (.tar.gz) or GZ file and you get a list of everything inside, with folders and sizes, so you can download just the files you need or all of them at once.
It is handy on Chromebooks, office PCs where you cannot install software, and phones that struggle with archives. Everything happens in your browser: the file never leaves your phone or computer, is not uploaded to any server and is not stored by News Appite.
You also see the uncompressed size of every file before downloading it, which helps you spot unexpected or suspicious files in archives received by email.

Tips & benchmarks
- Password-protected (encrypted) ZIP files cannot be opened here; use 7-Zip with the password.
- RAR and 7Z archives are not supported; ask the sender for a ZIP if possible.
- To change the archive format instead, use our ZIP to TAR/TGZ converters.
- Be cautious with .exe, .bat or .js files inside archives from unknown senders; extracting is safe, running them may not be.
