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. |

Gzipped Tar File
| Extension | .tgz |
| Category | 🔵 archives |
| Programs | 🔵 Smith Micro Stuffit Deluxe 2010 🔵 WinRAR 5 🔵 Corel WinZip 18.5 🔵 Zipeg 🔵 Incredible Bee Archiver 🔵 Tar |
| Description | 🔵 Files with the .tgz extension originate from archived TAR files compressed with gzip—the compressed files sports an extension of either .tar.gz or .tgz. The TGZ format is created for use in UNIX-based systems. The constituent TAR file serves as an archive for multiple files before compression into TGZ. TGZ file format is commonly used as an installation module in some operating systems' executable installation files. |
| Technical details | 🔵 The TGZ file format was initially created by Mark Adler and Jean Loop Gaily, with the first release going public in 1992. TGZ was designed explicitly for use on the GNU project for open-source applications. The most recent update of the TGZ format was released in June 2013. The file format and its accompanying creator applications were developed to modify relatively large files. Relative to other common types of ZIP files, the TGZ files can store much larger data volume. Also, TGZ format differs from zipped files in that unlike the multiple files compressed to form .zip file types, .tgz files can only squeeze a single TAR archive file into TGZ. |
