I have downloaded a file with IDM.
When I run tar xvf file.gz
in powershell
, I get this error:
tar.exe: Error opening archive: Unrecognized archive format
I also am sure regarding file have been downloaded completely with no corrupt.
But when I run tar xvf file.gz
in the same path via WSL, it works fine and extracts.
I also check it with file file.gz
in WSL and it is shows as a gz compressed file.
I run these commands in terminal and shows it’s gz:
Add-Type -AssemblyName "System.Web"
GetMimeMapping
[System.Web.MimeMapping]::GetMimeMapping(".file.gz")
Since I’m using a Python script to get a file and extract that, I need it works fine in powershell.
