What is ezyZip?
ezyZip is a free online zip to tar converter that runs in your browser. No need to install any additional converter software. It supports a myriad of other file conversion options too.
Unlike other online archive conversion utilities, ezyZip DOES NOT enforce file size restrictions or require uploading files to a server. It runs locally as a browser app, thus making it much quicker than other online conversion tools. This means you'll be able to convert large compressed files! This also ensures your privacy will be protected as no file data will leave your browser.
