BOI Archiver is an open-source file archiving tool created using Python. The software uses a custom archive format and provides compression, optional encryption, and a local browser-based interface. It is available as a standalone executable for multiple operating systems.

Overview

BOI Archiver creates and extracts archives using a block-structured format that arranges data into organized segments. Each archive begins with a header that indicates whether the contents are encrypted or unencrypted, allowing the software to determine how the file should be handled. The format also stores basic structural information that helps the program reconstruct the original data during extraction.

The software is designed to be used entirely through its local web interface, which opens automatically in a browser when the application is started. The interface provides access to core functions such as selecting files, creating archives, extracting existing archives, and enabling password protection for encrypted files. All operations are performed locally on the user’s device, and the interface does not rely on any external services or internet connectivity. BOI Archiver is distributed as a standalone executable so that it can be used without installing additional components.
