# Extract CHD, RVZ, Z3DS, and ROM archives online

Extract ROM archives, CHD and RVZ disc images, or Z3DS, ZCCI, ZCXI, ZCIA, and Z3DSX files in your browser. Download files without uploads.

To change a ROM's container instead, follow [Extract or compress files in the browser](<https://rom-weaver.com/docs/convert-roms-browser.md>). For terminal procedures, see the [CLI archive guide](<https://rom-weaver.com/docs/work-with-archives.md>).

To decompress a GameCube or Wii disc, follow [Decompress RVZ to ISO](<https://rom-weaver.com/docs/convert-rvz-to-iso.md>).

To decompress Nintendo 3DS files, follow [Extract Z3DS, ZCCI, ZCXI, ZCIA, and Z3DSX](<https://rom-weaver.com/docs/extract-z3ds.md>).

## Extract an archive

1. Open [Extract](<https://rom-weaver.com/extract-files>).
2. Add one archive or disc image to **Archive**.
3. Wait for extraction to finish. rom-weaver also extracts archives found inside the file.

Extract opens one archive per run. If you add several files at once, it extracts the first and names the others it skipped; add them in another run.

For an NFS disc, add `hif_000000.nfs`, the remaining `hif_*.nfs` parts, and `htk.bin` together in the same file selection or drop. Wait for the ISO to appear in **Files**.

For a WBFS disc split for FAT32, add the `.wbfs` file and every `.wbf1`, `.wbf2`, ... part together in the same file selection or drop.

If a part is missing, Extract reports that the `.wbfs` file is shorter than its WBFS header says. A WBFS drive image that holds several games fails with "Only single WBFS discs are supported".

To stop a long extraction, cancel it from the progress bar. Select **Extract again** to restart it.

## Download the files

1. In **Files**, select the files you need.
2. Select **Download 1 file**, or **Download N files as ZIP** for several files.
3. Save the download.

The extracted files stay in this browser until you add another file or leave the page.

The [container table](<https://rom-weaver.com/docs/supported-formats.md#container-and-compression-formats>) lists the formats that can be read.

## Convert CHD to ISO or BIN/CUE

Follow [Convert CHD to ISO, BIN/CUE, or GDI](<https://rom-weaver.com/docs/extract-chd.md>) for CHD decompression.
