Examples

Creates POSIX USTAR. Names may be shortened to fit the format. Content is unchanged, but ownership, permissions and dates are replaced. No folder selection. GZIP processing supports one member, validates its checksum, and requires DecompressionStream for extraction.

Processing stops after 60 seconds. Files and results are held in memory; even within these limits, a low-memory device may fail. Cancel and retry with fewer or smaller files.

Files, names, and extracted contents stay in browser memory. A local worker packages or expands bytes. Reset ends processing and releases file references; it does not securely erase device memory. File contents are not uploaded and there is no server fallback. Website and account traffic is separate from file processing. Downloads remain wherever you save them.
