Hey, thanks for sharing. I wrote this because I had to unpack a .tar.gz on an older Windows Server build host and there was no native way of doing it (as far as I could tell). Googling pointed to powershell scripts that installed 7z and used that, but I wanted something more lightweight and portable.

I'm guessing this is a very niche need, but was surprised nobody else created something like it (again, as far as I could tell), so I just went ahead and did it.
