Create TAR — Frequently Asked Questions

When should I use TAR vs TAR.GZ?

Use TAR when you need to bundle files without compression. TAR.GZ adds compression for smaller file sizes, ideal for distribution.

What's the size limit?

The tool can handle archives up to 2GB total, limited by browser memory.

Does TAR support password protection?

Standard TAR archives do not support encryption. For secure archives, use ZIP with encryption.

Can I keep folder structure?

Yes, folders are preserved automatically when you add them to the archive.
