How to convert TAR to JAR?
You can convert TAR to JAR with MConverter in three easy steps:
Choose TAR files from your device
At the top of this page, drag and drop your TARs. You can also click to select TAR files using your operating system's file picker. Another method is to press the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+V (⌘+V on Mac) to paste a TAR file you have copied to clipboard. Converting a folder with TAR files to JAR is also supported: simply paste or drag and drop it.
Click or tap on JAR from the list of target formats
Alternatively, you can use the search field to quickly find the format you need, whether it's JAR or something else.
Download your JAR files, after MConverter has finished processing them
There's an option to automatically download the converted JAR files, so you don't have to press the download icon for each JAR. On desktop platforms, you can download the JAR files to a different folder by clicking on SAVE TO... You may see a share icon as well. Use it to directly share the JARs with other apps.

Mime type
application/x-tar
Format description
Originally used by Unix/Linux, TAR files are archives containing multiple files inside. Also known as tarballs, TARs are similar to ZIP, but they do not have any compression applied. This makes them quicker to create and extract.
However, it is possible to compress TAR files using bzip2, gzip, or xz compression. To do this, convert the TAR file to TBZ2, TGZ, or TXZ respectively.

Archive/Compression file formats
Developed by

Mime type
application/java-archive
Format description
JAR, or Java Archives, are executable Java programs by the Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
Please note that MConverter cannot create an executable program if the provided source archive file was not a compiled program for the same platform. When converting from JAR to another format, MConverter only extracts the contents of the JAR file. It does not make it installable in another format.
Common questions about converting TAR to JAR
Can I convert TAR to JAR in bulk?
Yes, MConverter supports batch converting of multiple TARs to JARs simultaneously. You can even drag and drop folders containing TARs to convert to JAR. Pasting TAR files and folders copied in the clipboard also works: use Ctrl+V.
Can I convert a TAR file to JAR, if its size is 2 GB?
Yes, with MConverter Pro you can convert big TARs, up to 2 gigabytes each. The free version lets you convert files up to 100 MB. If you need to convert TAR files over 100 megabytes, try MConverter Pro. If your files aren’t over 1 GB, then you can use MConverter Plus instead, as it’s cheaper.
Is converting TARs to JAR safe with MConverter?
Yes, we encrypt your connection using industry standards. Plus, your TAR files are only accessible by you. 4 hours after the conversion completes, they are automatically deleted from MConverter’s servers. You can also delete your TARs and other converted files immediately after finishing the conversion by clicking the bin icon.
