The tar utility is not an install/uninstall utility. Typically files downloaded as a tar archive can be extracted, using the tar command, to a specified directory. Then further instructions contained in the extracted files can be followed to complete the installation. Then uninstallation, if desired, would be the reverse of the installation process.
Often installation involves use of the make command in conjunction with a makefile contained in the archive. The makefile may include a target suggestively named "clean", for example, for uninstalling the installed files.
tar -zxvf <tarball-file>
It is a tar file file compressed using BZIP. "Bzipped-tar-file"
The usual way of copying or moving directories is to use the tar command. The resulting tar file (called a tarball) can also be compressed to save time in moving it to another system. To create a tar file for export, use a command such as: cd directory tar cvf export.tar . This will create a file called export.tar that contains all of the elements of that directory. You could also compress that tar file by: gzip export.tar Which creates an export.tar.gz file. Then, copy or move the file to another place or system. To import it: gunzip export tar if the file was compressed, then use tar to extract the contents: cd directory tar xvf export tar
First, click Settings and search for the Control Panel. Open Uninstall A Program then find the file called Windows Movie Maker. Highlight the file and click uninstall to begin the process.
just go to program files look for the file and theres an uninstall application
A .tbz file is a tar file that has been compressed using bzip
in a linux machine : tar -cvf FileOrDirectory.tar FileOrDirectory # or to gzip it at the same time... tar -czvf FileOrDirectory.tgz FileOrDirectory
For TAR archives, you use tar -cvf .
The usual approach is to create a 'tar' file first of the directory and then compress the tar file. This is also safer because it leaves the original directory intact.
in a linux machine : tar -cvf FileOrDirectory.tar FileOrDirectory # or to gzip it at the same time... tar -czvf FileOrDirectory.tgz FileOrDirectory
The 'tar' utility is not usually used to install packages; it would consist of a source package that has to be configured, compiled, and then installed. The tar file you receive usually is in a compressed format as well.The sequence of events with a tar file (sometimes called a tarball) is to do the following:Uncompress the tar file if it is compressedExtract all of the files into a directory with 'tar xvf filename'Run the ./configure command in the root directory of the package if it existsRun the 'make' command on the resultRun the 'make install' command if everything compiled and linked successfully.
It is not possible to convert a tar file to an apk file. Tar is a file archive format, while apk is a file format for Android application packages. The two formats are not compatible and cannot be converted into each other. A tar file is a compressed archive file that can contain multiple files. It is often used to store files for backup or distribution. An apk file is an Android application package that contains the code, resources, and other files needed to install and run an Android app. If you have a tar file that contains an Android app, you can extract the app from the tar file and then install it on your Android device. To do this, you can use a file archiver program like 7-Zip or WinRAR. Once the app is extracted, you can install it on your Android device by following these steps: Open the file manager on your Android device. Locate the extracted app file. Tap on the app file to install it. You may need to grant permission to install apps from unknown sources before you can install the app. To do this, go to Settings > Security > Unknown Sources and toggle the switch to the on position. Once the app is installed, you can launch it from the app drawer.
