Free Universal Archive Extractor

Extract files from ZIP, RAR, 7-Zip, TAR, GZIP, and more, entirely in your browser. Everything happens locally — nothing is uploaded.

Drop an archive here, or click to choose a file
Supports .zip, .rar, .7z, .tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2 and more
Powered by libarchive (via WebAssembly), the same engine behind the 7-Zip and unrar command-line tools.

How this works: this page loads libarchive, compiled to WebAssembly, and runs it in a background worker in your browser tab. Your archive file is read locally and is never sent to any server.

Troubleshooting

A password-protected RAR or 7-Zip archive won't extract

This page can list what's inside an encrypted archive, but extracting a password-protected archive isn't supported here yet. Use a desktop tool such as 7-Zip or WinRAR, which can prompt for the password.

Extraction seems to hang on a very large archive

The whole archive is decompressed inside your browser tab's memory. A multi-gigabyte archive can be slow, or exhaust the tab's available memory. For very large archives, a desktop tool like 7-Zip will generally be faster and more reliable.

Prefer the command line?

7z x archive.7z unrar x archive.rar tar -xf archive.tar.gz

This page is powered by libarchive, the same open-source engine behind the 7-Zip and unrar command-line tools.
