How do I convert an ACE file to GZ on this tool?

Upload your ACE archive, select GZ as the output format, and click Convert. The tool extracts all files from the ACE archive and recompresses them into a GZ file using DEFLATE compression. For archives with multiple files, it wraps them into a TAR container before applying GZIP compression, preserving the folder hierarchy. Download the converted GZ file instantly.

Why should I convert ACE to GZ instead of keeping the original format?

ACE is a proprietary compression format primarily used by WinACE, while GZ (GZIP) is a free, open standard supported natively on Linux, macOS, and Unix systems. Converting to GZ ensures compatibility with standard extraction tools like tar and gzip, and typically offers better performance in server environments, making it ideal for deployment and distribution.

What happens to file permissions, timestamps, and metadata during the conversion?

The conversion preserves the original file content, timestamps, and directory structure. However, file permissions and Unicode metadata may not be fully preserved when moving from ACE to GZ, as ACE uses extended attributes that GZIP does not support. For maximum fidelity, the tool extracts ACE and repackages via TAR.GZ, which retains Unix permissions and file ownership.
