What is an AZ file

AZ files mostly belong to AZ Twitter Archiver.

AZ files are compressed archive files that store Twitter data using the GZIP compression format. They are created by the AZ Twitter Archiver and are designed to package tweet records along with related metadata.

How to open and view them:
If you have an AZ file, use a GZIP-compatible extraction tool such as 7-Zip or WinRAR. You might need to rename the file to a .gz extension if your software does not recognize the AZ format. Follow these steps:

Install a GZIP extraction tool.

Rename the file to .gz if necessary.

Extract the contents to view the archived Twitter data.
