What archive formats does this tool support?

This tool currently supports the standard ZIP format, which is the most widely used archive format. ZIP files with DEFLATE and STORE compression methods are supported. For other formats like RAR or 7Z, you may need a dedicated desktop utility.

Can I extract password-protected ZIP files?

Yes, the tool supports extraction of password-protected ZIP archives. You will be prompted to enter the password when the archive is detected as encrypted. The password is processed locally in your browser and is never sent to any server.

Is there a file size limit for ZIP extraction?

Since all processing happens in your browser, the practical limit depends on your device's available memory. Most modern browsers can handle ZIP archives up to several hundred megabytes. For very large archives, a desktop utility may be more appropriate.

Does the tool preserve the original folder structure?

Yes, when you extract all files, the original folder structure inside the ZIP archive is preserved. Files within nested directories maintain their relative paths, so you get the same folder organization as the original archive.

Can I extract just one file from a ZIP archive?

Absolutely. After uploading your ZIP file, you can browse the contents and select individual files to extract. You don't need to download the entire archive if you only need specific files.

Is my ZIP file uploaded to a server?

No, all extraction happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your ZIP file and its contents are never uploaded to any server. This ensures complete privacy and security for your data.

Can I use this tool on my phone?

Yes, the tool works on mobile devices with modern browsers. You can upload ZIP files from your phone's storage and extract their contents directly. The interface is responsive and touch-friendly.

What happens if the ZIP file is corrupted?

The tool will attempt to read and extract as much as possible from a corrupted archive. If the corruption is severe, an error message will be displayed indicating which files could not be extracted. Partial extraction is supported for partially damaged archives.
