What is TGZ file?

TGZ (Gzipped Tar TGZ) is a file extension used for creating, extracting, and archiving data for backup and transport. TGZ files are compressed archives that have been created with the Gzip file compression algorithm. This compression technique is often used in UNIX-based operating systems. TGZ archives usually contain multiple files which have been tarred and compressed into one single entity. [ ⏩ ] TGZ file extension

What is TAR file?

The TAR file extension (derived from the word ‘Tape Archive’) is a popular file format used by Consolidated Unix, most versions of Linux, and other distributions. It is used to package multiple files into a single archive, which can then be compressed or uncompressed, usually in the form of a .GZ, .TGZ, or .BZ2 file. TAR files are typically used for transferring large sets of data between networks, and for backing up important data that needs to be preserved over long periods of time. [ ⏩ ] TAR file extension

How to convert the file from TGZ to TAR?

To successfully convert the TGZ file to TAR, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.TGZ). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case TAR (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than TAR).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. TGZ to TAR. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting TGZ files to TAR files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension TAR, while before this step we had the TGZ file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new TAR file, or not.

How can the file conversion help me?

The TGZ file conversion is useful in many situations. It often happens that you need to send someone a file (e.g. a graphic file) in a specific format, other than the one the selected file is currently encoded. In such a case, you should check whether it is possible to convert it (e.g. z TGZ to TAR), and if the conversion is possible - download the appropriate software.
