ZIP Archive Extractor

Browse and extract ZIP archives in the browser - nothing uploads

What is the ZIP Archive Extractor?

The zip archive extractor works like this: it opens ZIP archives with WebAssembly decompression (fflate), lists every entry with its size, previews text files and extracts any file individually. Everything happens on your device - the input never leaves your tab unless the tool clearly states it performs a server-side lookup.

How to use the ZIP Archive Extractor

1. Select a .zip file.
2. Browse the archive contents with sizes.
3. Preview any text file (logs, JSON, CSV, code) inline.
4. Save individual files - nothing is extracted until you ask.

Features

• Files process locally - nothing is uploaded
• Download the result with one click
• Originals are never modified

Common mistakes to avoid

• Renaming extensions instead of converting formats
• Uploading confidential documents to unknown sites (never needed here)

Examples

Frequently asked questions

Encrypted or password zips?

Password-protected archives are reported as unreadable - the browser API does not attempt password recovery.

What about RAR or 7z?

ZIP only for now - those formats need different decompressors and are on the roadmap.

Which archives can it open?

Standard ZIP archives, including ones with nested folders - every entry is listed with its size and modifiable paths intact.

Can I preview files without extracting everything?

Yes - text files preview inline, and any single entry can be extracted alone, which is the safe way to pull one file from a large archive.
