How to use this tool

Choose the input file or files.
For extraction, inspect the contents first; choose Extract files and optionally enter exact paths, one per line.
Process the archive and download the verified output. Cancel stops processing; Reset clears this tool's inputs and results.

20 MiB total input, up to 1,000 archive entries, 16 MiB per input file when creating an archive and per extracted entry and 64 MiB decompressed total. At most 100 selected input or downloaded files per operation.
ZIP supports stored/Deflate entries with UTF-8 or ASCII filenames. Encryption, ZIP64 and legacy non-UTF-8 names are unsupported.
TAR supports regular USTAR files and directories. Links, special files, PAX/GNU extensions and unsafe paths are rejected. Nested archives remain unopened.
Extraction downloads flatten folder paths and prefix names with an index to avoid collisions. No archive content is executed. GZIP decompression may return a TAR file; use TAR extraction to unpack that file.
