Why use this tool

  • No decompression

    Only the headers are read: it is instant even with big archives.

  • All the formats

    ZIP, RAR (RAR5 included), 7Z, TAR, TAR.GZ and GZ in the same viewer.

  • Private

    The archive never leaves your device: everything happens in your browser.

  • Real security

    Paths sanitized against Zip Slip, anti-bomb limits, and zero execution of content.

Frequently asked questions

Does it decompress the archive?

No: it only reads the internal index. That is why it is instant and uses no memory.

Does it work with protected archives?

It can list encrypted RAR/7Z as long as the file names are not encrypted (the content is not decrypted). If the archive encrypts names too, it cannot be opened.

What are the limits?

Up to 250 MB per archive and 5,000 listed entries: plenty for normal use and safe for your browser.
