WinZip and 7z support tgz.



No one in their right mind would use anything but 7zip... especially trailware like WinZip and WinRar. Windows has built in Zip support if you're not in-the-know but to go out of your way to use WinZip/WinRar implies a certial level of out of date knowledge.


By default Windows handles Zip files in Explorer. Ostensibly it's fair to assume that "I don't run non-standard apps when I can avoid it" is a reasonable (if limiting) premise.
