.bz2 is the filename extension associated with the bzip2 data compression format. It is an open source data compression and decompression tool developed by Julian Seward in 1996. The compression and decompression format is cross platform compatible and comes bundled with versions of Linux and UNIX. The latest of Bzip2 exists as an open source library for download and customization. Earlier versions have executables that can be run directly on Microsoft Windows.
TBZ is a tar archive compressed with bzip2 compression.
FreeFileConvert uses tuned encoding for BZIP2 to TBZ conversions, preserving clarity while trimming file size. Finished archives download instantly across phones, tablets, desktops, and modern browsers without extra tweaks.
Upload BZIP2 files from desktop or tablet, queue multiple jobs, and let the converter finish autonomously. Return whenever convenient to download synchronized TBZ results on any device you rely on.
Process up to 5 files sized 1024 MB per batch without splitting queues manually. Mixed-format uploads convert together, producing consistent TBZ archives with dependable progress tracking.
Bzip2 compresses data using the Burrows-Wheeler block-sorting text compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. It is a client of the libbzip2 library. Because the bzip2 is built on top of this freely available library, users are free to create their own programs to compress and decompress bzip2 files.
TBZ combines tar archiving with bzip2 for better compression than gzip.
Upload your archive file in the BZIP2 format from your device.
Select TBZ as the output format and click Convert. Adjust optional settings if needed.
Download the converted archive file. Each file stays available for up to 5 downloads.
