Convert tar.z to txz

What is the difference between .tar.z and .txz?

Description: A TAR.Z file is a Unix TAR archive compressed with a standard Unix compression algorithm to save disk space. It contains one or more compressed files. The file is commonly used on Unix operating systems to archive groups of files.; The TXZ file format is a combination of TAR archiving and XZ compression. It is used to pack multiple files into a single archive (TAR) and then compress it using XZ compression to reduce the file size. The TAR aspect allows for the collection of various files and directories into a single file, preserving their structure and attributes. The XZ compression, known for its high compression ratio, further compresses this archive, making the resulting TXZ file more efficient for storage or transmission.
