如何在 Windows 10 上打开 TAR 文件：(How to Open TAR files on Windows 10: ) PC 可以存储大量数据，这些数据不仅限于在同一台 PC 上创建的文件，还可以从Internet下载文件，使用USB或外部硬盘传输文件，等您也可以使用电子邮件传输此数据，但前提是数据大小低于 1 GB。但是问题出现了，如果您有数千个文件，应该如何使用电子邮件发送这些文件？好吧，在这种情况下，您应该利用TAR文件，因为单独发送文件将花费大量时间。因此(Hence)，为了解决这个问题，创建了TAR文件。
TAR 文件：(TAR File: )Tar 文件(Tar File)也称为 tarball，它是文件的集合，其中多个文件包含在一个文件中。因此，无需单独跟踪所有文件，在创建TAR 文件(TAR file)后，您只需要跟踪一个文件。一旦创建了TAR 文件(TAR file)，接下来的逻辑步骤就是自动进行的压缩。因此，您不仅可以省去管理所有文件的麻烦，还可以节省带宽，因为发送较小的文件将花费更少的时间，并且占用的磁盘空间也更少。TAR 文件(TAR file)的扩展名为.tar.gz。
TAR文件通常用于Linux 和 Unix(Linux & Unix)操作系统。它们相当于Windows中的(Windows)Zip文件。现在，如果您谈论在Windows操作系统上访问(operating system)TAR文件，那么您将需要一个名为 7- Zip的第三方程序（还有其他几个程序，但我们更喜欢 7 - Zip）。7- Zip是一个非常轻量级的第三方应用程序(party app)，可以很好地完成这项工作。如果没有第三方应用程序(party app)，您将被迫使用命令提示符(Command Prompt)来访问TAR 涉及使用一些不建议所有人使用的复杂命令的文件。

How to Open TAR Files (.tar.gz) on Windows 10
How to Open TAR files on Windows 10: PC’s can store a large amount of data and this data is not limited to the files created on the same PC but you can also download files from the Internet, transfer files using USB or external hard disk, etc. You can possibly transfer this data using email also, but only if the size of the data is under 1 GB. But the questions arise, if you have thousands of files how should one send these files using email? Well, in this case you should take advantages of TAR files as sending the files separately will take a lot of time. Hence, to solve this problem TAR files were created.
TAR File: Tar File are also called tarball which is a collection of files where several files are wrapped up in one single file. So instead of keeping track of all the files separately, after creating TAR files, you need to keep track of only one file. Once the TAR files are created, the next logical step is compression which happens automatically. So not only you are saving the headache of managing all the files but also the bandwidth as sending smaller file will take less time and will also occupy less disk space. The extension of TAR file is .tar.gz.
TAR files are typically used in Linux & Unix operating systems. They are equivalent to Zip files in Windows. Now if you talk about accessing TAR files on Windows operating system then you will require a third-party program called 7-Zip (there are several others but we prefer 7-Zip). 7-Zip is a very lightweight third party app that does this job very well. Without a third-party application, you will be forced to use Command Prompt to access the TAR files which involves using some complex command which is not recommended for everyone.
