Choose a ZIP. Only its file list is read until you extract something.
ZIP Inspector
List every file in a ZIP, including ZIP64 archives over 4 GB, without extracting anything. Nested ZIPs are flagged, and you can extract only the members you select.
Good to know
- Only the archive's directory is read to make the list, so the listing is quick however large the ZIP.
- Encrypted members are flagged and cannot be extracted here.
- Nested ZIPs are flagged, not opened. Extract one and drop it in to look inside.
Your files stay on your machine
This tool runs entirely inside your browser tab. Nothing is uploaded, stored, or sent to a server — close the tab and every trace is gone.
These are the free ones — see the full suiteHow big a file can it take?
There is no upload, so there is no upload limit — but the work happens in this tab, which means your browser’s memory is the budget. Nothing here will refuse a file for being large; a big enough one simply gets slow and, eventually, reloads the tab. The figures below are rules of thumb on a desktop browser, not enforced caps. On a phone or tablet, expect a good deal less.
- Listing reads a small part of the file, so tens of gigabytes are fine, and the member count binds: comfortable to about 100,000 entries.
- An extracted member is held in memory until saved, so each should stay under about 1 GB.
Password-protected PDFs are declined whatever their size — unlock the file first. If a run does die on a long document, splitting it into volumes and working through them one at a time is the reliable way round it.
