RAR to ZIP Converter

About the RAR to ZIP Converter

Convert RAR archives — and 7z or TAR files — into a standard ZIP that opens on any computer or phone without extra software. The folder structure is preserved and the ZIP uses maximum compression. Privacy note: files never leave your device. The archive is unpacked and re-zipped in your browser; nothing is uploaded to a server.

This tool works in your browser: the files and text you use are processed on your device and are not uploaded.

How to use it

  1. Drop a .rar (or .7z/.tar) file onto the page.
  2. Check the file list — you can preview files first.
  3. Press “Convert all to ZIP”.
  4. Download the new ZIP when the progress bar finishes.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded for conversion?

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser; your files never leave your device.

Why convert RAR to ZIP?

ZIP is built into Windows, macOS, Android and iOS, so a ZIP opens anywhere without installing WinRAR or 7-Zip.

Is anything lost in the conversion?

File contents and folder structure are kept exactly. RAR-specific extras such as recovery records and archive comments are not carried over, and unsafe file paths are cleaned.

Can it convert password-protected RARs?

Not yet — encrypted RAR archives can’t be decrypted by the in-browser engine.

Can I convert only some files?

Yes. Untick the files you don’t want and use “Download selected as ZIP”.
