What is an LZO file?
LZO – lzop compressed file. LZO is a single file compressed with lzop, which trades compression for speed: it is very fast, but files stay larger.
LZO Converter →What is a ZIP file?
ZIP – ZIP archive. ZIP is the most widely supported archive format: every operating system opens it without extra software. It compresses each file separately, usually with Deflate, so single files can be pulled out quickly.

Good to know
- an LZO file holds a single compressed file, so the result is a ZIP archive with that one file in it.
- Symbolic links, hard links and special files (such as devices) are left out of the result for safety; the page tells you when it does this.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting LZO to ZIP free?
Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
Are my LZO files uploaded anywhere?
This conversion runs on our server. Your file is sent over an encrypted connection, and both it and the result are deleted 72 hours after the conversion.
How large can the LZO file be?
Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.
Will the folders inside my LZO be kept?
an LZO file holds just one file, so there are no folders to keep: the ZIP will contain that one file.
Can I convert several LZO files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted one after another, and each one gets its own Download button.
