TAR

Consolidated Unix File Archive

The TAR file format is a widely used archival format for storing multiple files in a single container, commonly associated with Unix and Linux systems. It is supported by tools like GNU Tar, 7-Zip, and various file archivers, and is often combined with compression formats like GZIP or BZIP2. The format stores files sequentially with metadata such as permissions, timestamps, and ownership, and supports advanced features like symbolic links, hard links, and sparse file handling.

ZIP

WinZIP Compressed Archive

The ZIP file format is a widely used compression and archiving standard that allows multiple files and directories to be bundled into a single compressed file, reducing storage space and simplifying file transfers. It is supported by numerous applications, including built-in tools in operating systems like Windows and macOS, as well as third-party software like WinZip, 7-Zip, and WinRAR. The format uses a combination of lossless compression algorithms, supports encryption, and stores metadata such as file names, timestamps, and directory structures, with optional advanced features like split archives and error recovery.
