Open and create archives

Unzip Online opens ZIP, RAR, 7Z, TAR, GZ, BZ2, XZ and ISO files, lists what's inside and lets you download single files or everything at once. It also fixes garbled file names from older Chinese, Japanese or Taiwanese Windows zip tools. Zip Files packs any files into one ZIP in your browser, without uploading them. Split ZIP, for files too large for email, is coming soon.

Passwords and encryption

Password Protect ZIP creates an AES-256 ZIP that 7-Zip, WinRAR and The Unarchiver open. Encrypt File locks any file with a password on your own device, and Decrypt File opens it again. Nobody, including us, can recover a file whose password is lost.

Checking a file

The File Hash Checker calculates MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256 and SM3 and compares them with the value published on a download page, so you know the file is intact. It can also put two files side by side, a quick way to confirm that a backup matches the original.

What stays on your device

Zip Files, Encrypt File, Decrypt File and File Hash Checker run in your browser, don't use your daily tasks and never send the file anywhere. Unzip Online and Password Protect ZIP work on our server, where the upload arrives encrypted and is deleted automatically after an hour.

FAQ

Archive & Security Tools: questions and answers

How do I open a RAR file without WinRAR?
Upload it to Unzip Online, enter the password if it has one and download the files you need, one at a time or all together as a ZIP.
Which archive and security tools keep my files on my device?
Zip Files, Encrypt File, Decrypt File and File Hash Checker. They work in your browser, so the files are never uploaded.
What if I forget the password to an encrypted file?
Then it can't be opened. The encryption happens on your device and we never see the password, so there is no reset, and it's best to store the password somewhere safe before you delete the original.
Are the archive and security tools free?
Yes. The browser tools have no limit, while Unzip Online and Password Protect ZIP give visitors 2 tasks and free accounts 2 a day, for files up to 50 MB. VIP takes 1 GB files without a daily limit.
How do I check a download's SHA-256 checksum?
