    CHM (Compiled HTML Help) is a format used for help files and documentation, typically in Windows environments. It is a compressed archive that contains HTML pages, images, and other resources that are displayed through a special viewer, usually for software documentation and help systems.

    CHM files are commonly used for offline help documentation in software applications, providing easy navigation with a table of contents, search functionality, and index.

    How to open CHM?

    CHM files can be opened with the built-in Windows CHM viewer, known as 'HTML Help Viewer.' Simply double-click the CHM file, and it will open in the viewer.

    For macOS and Linux users, third-party software like 'CHM Viewer' for macOS or 'xCHM' for Linux can be used to view CHM files.

    TAR (Tape Archive) is a widely used file format for storing multiple files and directories in a single archive. Originally developed for tape backup, it is now commonly used for packaging files for distribution or backup purposes.

    The TAR format does not provide compression on its own but is often used in conjunction with compression algorithms such as GZIP or BZIP2, resulting in files with extensions like .tar.gz or .tar.bz2.

    How to open TAR files?

    TAR files can be opened using tools such as WinRAR, 7-Zip, or PeaZip on Windows. On macOS and Linux, the tar command is natively available and can extract TAR archives.

    For example, on Linux or macOS, you can use the terminal command: `tar -xf archive.tar` to extract the files. GUI tools like Keka for macOS can also handle TAR files.

    How to convert TAR files?

    For instance, on Linux or macOS, you can compress a TAR file using: `gzip archive.tar` to create a .tar.gz file or use GUI tools like 7-Zip to repackage the contents into a ZIP archive for better compatibility with various platforms.
