Unzip Files Online Free
Open and extract any ZIP archive right in your browser. Browse every file inside, check compressed and original sizes, then pull out single files or the whole archive in one click. No upload, no software, no account.
How to Unzip Files Online
Open the ZIP
Drag and drop your ZIP file onto the page, or click to choose one from your device. Nothing uploads, the archive opens instantly in your browser.
Browse the Contents
See every file inside the ZIP in a clean tree view, with the compressed size and original size for each entry, so you know what is inside before you extract.
Extract Your Files
Click any file to save just that one, or choose Extract All Files to download the entire archive. Each file keeps its original name.
Open ZIP Files Online Without Installing Software
You get a ZIP from a client and the laptop you are on has no extraction software, or you are on a work machine where you cannot install anything. This is where an online ZIP extractor earns its place. You can unzip files online in seconds, preview every file inside the archive, and pull out only the ones you actually need.
There is nothing to install and no account to create. Drop in a .zip file and you get a clean tree view of the archive, with the compressed size and the original size for each entry, so you know exactly what you are extracting before you save it. Download one file, a handful, or the whole archive.
Because everything runs in your browser, your ZIP never leaves your device. That makes this a safe way to open confidential documents, client deliverables, and archives you cannot upload to a third-party service. It also means the tool works the same on Windows, macOS, Linux, a Chromebook, or a phone.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about extracting ZIP archives in the browser.
Is this ZIP extractor free?
Yes. Unzipping files online here is completely free with no signup, no install, and no usage limits. Open as many ZIP archives as you like and extract as many files as you need.
Does the tool upload my ZIP to a server?
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser. Your archive is read into memory on your own device, opened locally, and any files you extract are saved straight to your downloads folder. Nothing is transmitted or stored.
Can I unzip files on my phone?
Yes. Because the extractor runs in the browser, you can open and extract ZIP files on an iPhone or Android phone the same way you would on a computer. No app is required.
How do I extract just one file from a ZIP?
Open the ZIP, find the file in the list, and click its download button. Only that single file is extracted and saved, which is handy when you need one document out of a large archive.
Can I extract password-protected ZIP files?
No. This tool does not support encrypted, password-protected archives. If your ZIP asks for a password, use a desktop archiver that supports encryption to open it.
Does it support RAR or 7Z files?
No, only standard .zip archives are supported. RAR and 7Z are different formats and need their own software to open. Convert them to ZIP first, or use a desktop tool.
How big a ZIP can I open?
There is no fixed limit, but your browser memory sets a practical ceiling. Archives up to a few hundred megabytes open without trouble on most devices. For multi-gigabyte archives, a desktop archiver is a better fit.
