- Description
- File archive compressed with both .TAR and .BZ2 compression; often found on Unix systems; must first be decompressed (using Bzip 2 decompression), then the files must be extracted from the tar archive.
- A 7Z file is a type of compressed archive that uses the open-source LZMA compression algorithm to reduce the size of the file. This type of file is often used to store multiple directories and files in a single, compressed package. 7Z files can also include strong AES-256 encryption for added security. They are commonly created using the 7-Zip utility developed by Igor Pavlov.
