.tar.gz compressed file?

XML, Perl, Python, and other languages can be discussed here, even if it isn't PHP (We might forgive you).

.tar.gz compressed file?

Post by Coal »

Can anyone tell me where I can find a program that will open compressed files with a .tar.gz filetype?

Which operating system?

As far as I'm aware all the major decompression utilities for all the major OS's will handle tar gzipped files without any problems.

I have WinRAR and I tried and it doesn't work.

That would suggest that your file is corrupt, I have winrar and don't have any problems with tar gzipped files.
