ZIP Safety Checklist

Run through a local checklist before opening archives from email, forums, or unknown sources.

Local processingNo uploadNo accountNo tracking scripts

Before opening an archive

I trust the sender or download source. The file extension matches what I expected. I checked for executable files such as .exe, .bat, .cmd, .js, or .scr. I know whether the archive is password protected or split into parts. I will avoid uploading private archives to unknown services.

Complete the checklist to get a simple safety status.

How this tool protects privacy

This page is designed to run inside your browser. The selected file is not uploaded by the static site. For sensitive archives, avoid tools that require a server upload before they explain how files are handled.

Limitations

Very large archives may be slow. Browser support differs for advanced compression methods. ZIP files using unsupported methods may still be inspected even when every entry cannot be extracted.
