.gzTypical support level 2
Inspect gzip stream Online
gzip wraps one compressed data stream with a compact header and trailer; .tgz and .tar.gz commonly contain a TAR archive inside. Anyfile reports available stream metadata and recognizes the layered naming.
Choose a .gz fileYour file stays on this device
Anyfile reads only the local file you select. Parsing, decoding and rendering happen in this browser tab; the file is not uploaded to Anyfile servers.
What Anyfile can show
- Recognized headers and container properties
- Bounded entry or stream metadata when available
Limits and conditions
- This is structural inspection, not a full extraction workflow
- Encrypted, corrupt or extreme inputs can be rejected

7-Zip — Use a dedicated archive utility when you need to extract, test or create archive contents.

Common question
Does a .gz file contain a browsable file list?
Not by itself. A plain gzip stream has one payload; a file list comes from an inner format such as TAR.
