FAQ

Are my compressed or extracted files uploaded to a server?
No. All processing happens locally in your browser (on your device). Your files are never sent to or stored on any server, so even confidential files are safe.
Is there a limit on the number or size of files?
There is no service-side limit. However, since everything runs in your device memory, very large or numerous files may take longer to process or may hit your browser's memory limit depending on your device.
Can it create or open password-protected (encrypted) ZIPs?
This tool does not support creating or opening password-protected ZIPs. If you load an encrypted ZIP, its contents may not be extractable.
Will Japanese (non-ASCII) file names be garbled?
This tool supports UTF-8 encoded file names. File names created by older software using Shift_JIS may appear garbled in some environments.
Can I use it on my smartphone?
Yes. It works on any device with a modern browser, including smartphones, tablets, and PCs. No unzip software needs to be installed.
