Archive Creator — Frequently Asked Questions

Which archive format should I use?

ZIP is the most universal and works everywhere. TAR.GZ is preferred in Unix/Linux environments and offers better compression. TAR without compression is good for bundling files without size reduction.

What's the maximum file size?

The tool can handle files up to 2GB total, limited by browser memory. For larger archives, consider splitting into multiple archives.

Can I password protect archives?

ZIP archives can be encrypted with AES-256 directly in your browser. Other formats like TAR do not support native password protection.

How do I organize files in folders?

Click on any file path to edit it. You can create folders by adding slashes (/) in the path, like 'folder/subfolder/file.txt'.
