Compressed Tarball File
Extension | .tar.gz |
Category | 🔵 archives |
Programs | 🔵 7-Zip 🔵 Acubix PicoZip 🔵 Ark 🔵 PeaZip 🔵 WinRAR 5 🔵 Xarchive |
Description | 🔵 The tar.gz format is a compressed archive file format used to store multiple files in a single file. It is a combination of two compression methods: TAR (Tape Archive) and GZIP. The TAR format is used to bundle multiple files into a single file, while the GZIP format is used to compress the resulting TAR file to reduce its size. |
Technical details | 🔵 The TAR format preserves file metadata such as permissions, ownership, and timestamps, and can store files of any type and format. The GZIP format compresses the TAR file using the DEFLATE algorithm, which is a lossless compression algorithm that reduces the size of the file without losing any data. The resulting tar.gz file is a single compressed archive file that can be easily transferred or shared. It can be decompressed and extracted using various utilities, including command-line tools like tar and gzip, as well as graphical user interface tools like 7-Zip, WinRAR, and WinZip. |

xz
Extension | .xz |
Category | 🔵 archives |
Description | 🔵 The XZ file format is a lossless compression file format that utilizes the LZMA2 compression algorithm. It is intended to supersede the older LZMA and LZMA2 formats, providing improved compression ratios and quicker decompression speeds. XZ files commonly use the .xz file extension. |
Technical details | 🔵 XZ files are created using the xz utility or other compatible programs, and can be opened and extracted using various software applications such as 7-Zip, WinZip, and WinRAR. The format supports compressing multiple files or directories into a single archive, as well as preserving file attributes and permissions. The XZ format is based on a container format that includes the compressed data and metadata about the compression, such as the dictionary size, compression level, and checksums. The container format allows for easy streaming and seeking of compressed data, making it suitable for use in various applications. |
