Drop TAR.XZ (TXZ) files onto the box above, or click it to choose them. ToAny reads the file's contents to detect the type, so a wrong extension does not matter.
Press Convert. There is nothing else to set. The work happens in this tab.
Save the ZIP, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.
The TAR.XZ to ZIP converter is part of this page and runs inside your browser. Your archives are never sent to ToAny or to anyone else.
Nothing has to travel to a server and back, so the conversion starts the moment you press Convert, even on a slow connection.
No sign-up, no email address and no watermark. Add several files and download them together as a ZIP.
A .tar.xz is the usual download of Linux source code and packages, and Windows has no built-in way to open one. ZIP opens by double-click on Windows, macOS and most phones, so repackaging the files makes them reachable without installing an archive tool.
A password-protected archive is refused, since its contents cannot be read without the password.
A .tar.xz (or .txz) is a TAR archive compressed with XZ. It makes smaller downloads than .tar.gz and is how the Linux kernel and many distribution packages are published.
Opens in Linux, 7-Zip and most archive utilities

The steps are the same everywhere because ToAny runs in the web browser: open this page in a current version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox, add the TAR.XZ file, press Convert and save the ZIP. There is nothing to install.
Yes. An archive can be up to 500 MB, unpack to at most 1 GB and hold up to 50,000 files; beyond those limits the page says so. Beyond that the limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded; a computer copes with large files better than a phone.
