    How It Works

    How to Convert ARCHIVE

    STEP 1

    Click inside the file drop area to upload your ARCHIVE file or drag & drop it.

    Locate your ARCHIVE file on your device—typically used for various purposes. Ensure the file is under 50MB to avoid upload issues. If the upload fails, check your internet connection or try compressing the file first.

    STEP 2

    Choose the format you want to convert your ARCHIVE file to and click 'Convert'.

    Choose your desired format based on your needs—different formats suit different purposes, like JPEG for smaller file sizes. The conversion process typically takes a few seconds, depending on file size and server load.

    STEP 3

    Download your converted file instantly after conversion.

    Once the conversion is complete, click the download link to save your converted file. You can then open it in software like a compatible viewer. If the file doesn’t download, ensure your browser allows pop-ups from RunConvert.

    STEP 4

    You can also send a link to the converted file via email. (Optional)

    Enter an email address to receive a secure link to your converted file, which is useful for sharing with clients or accessing later. Links expire after 24 hours for security, and RunConvert ensures your data is protected during transmission.

    Here are some common questions and answers about archive file conversions asked by our users on RunConvert.com.

    Q: Can I preview my archive before converting?

    A: While you can’t preview the contents directly on our platform, you can always extract the files after conversion to check out what’s inside.

    Q: How do I convert an archive file back into individual files?

    A: After converting the archive file, you can easily extract the contents using a tool like 7zip or WinRAR. If you’re looking to convert it to a different archive format, just upload it here and select your new format.

    Q: What happens if I upload a corrupt archive file?

    A: If the archive is corrupt, the conversion might fail. We recommend checking your file for corruption before uploading it to ensure a smooth conversion process.

    Q: Is there a way to test my converted archive file?

    A: Yes, after conversion, you can always test the archive by trying to extract the files on your computer or mobile. If there’s an issue, just let us know, and we’ll assist you!

    Q: How do I manage large archives for conversion?

    A: For larger archives, you might want to break them into smaller files. This can make the conversion process smoother and faster. If needed, our platform can handle batches of smaller files for you.

    Q: Can I convert an archive that's already been converted once?

    A: Yes, you can convert an archive that's already been converted. However, keep in mind that repeated conversions could sometimes affect the quality or integrity of the contents, so it’s always good to double-check!

    Q: Can I convert a ZIP file with multiple folders inside?

    A: Yes, we can handle ZIP files that contain multiple folders. When converted, your folders will remain intact, and the contents will be preserved.

    Q: What’s the difference between ZIP and RAR files?

    A: ZIP and RAR are both archive formats, but RAR generally offers better compression rates. RAR files are often smaller, but they require special software like WinRAR to open, whereas ZIP is more universally supported.

    Q: How do I convert a TAR file to a ZIP without losing file structure?

    A: When you convert a TAR file to ZIP, we ensure that the internal folder structure remains intact. It’s like transferring files without disturbing their order!

    Q: Can I convert a file that's already compressed but needs to be archived?

    A: Absolutely! If you have a compressed file (like a .tar.gz) but need it archived in a different format, you can upload it here, and we'll archive it in the format you choose.
