Save web pages as self-extracting HTML/ZIP polyglot files
SingleFileZ is a fork of SingleFile (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/singlefile/mpiodijhokgodhhofbcjdecpffjipkle) that allows you to save a webpage as a self-extracting HTML file. This HTML file is also a valid ZIP file containing all the page resources.
1) Getting started
- Wait until the page is fully loaded.
- Click on the SingleFileZ button in the extension toolbar to save the page.
2) More info
See the extension help in options page for more detailed information about the options, technical notes and known issues.
Project on GitHub: https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFileZ
3) Troubleshooting unknown issues
Please follow these steps if you find an unknown issue:
- Reset SingleFileZ options.
- If resetting options did not fix the issue, restart the browser.
- If restarting the browser did not fix the issue, try to disable all other extensions to see if there is a conflict.

- (2023-05-11) Jay Gatto: Love it, great work. My version of Chrome has disabled the extension, for some reason I'm determined to fix!
- (2023-03-14) Elia Mazzuoli: Very useful tool, I use it every day.
- (2022-05-09) José Mazcorro: It seems this extension have been edited, and it does not save several tabs at once.. I guess there is gonna be a new extension for that.
- (2022-01-25) Rogerio M. Souza: Fantastic! Congratulations to the Developer. Perfectly packs the page layout. Fully customizable and with powerful features. Once the HTML page has been downloaded, just go upLoad to: 1. https://www.netlify.com or 2. GooGle Drive, and open the HTML page with [https://www.drv.tw]
- (2021-11-09) Dawid Mlynarczyk: Świetny dodatek do archiwizowania stron internetowych. Zachowuje wszystko co składa się na daną stronę WWW (obrazki, czcionki, style, formatowanie itd.) w jednym samorozpakowującym się pliku HTML. Tak zapisane strony mają rozszerzenie HTML, a wewnętrznie części składowe strony są pakowane algorytmem ZIP - dzięki temu plik HTML jest mniejszy. Dodatek do poprawnego działania wymaga pozwolenia na dostęp do URL-i plików w naszym komputerze. Bez tego uprawnienia plik HTML otworzy się, ale jedynie z informacją, że został utworzony z użyciem dodatku SingleFileZ i że do normalnego działania potrzebne jest to pozwolenie. Wystarczy włączyć opcję "Zezwalaj na dostęp do adresów URL plików" w szczegółach dodatku, aby wszystko działało jak należy. W przeglądarce Firefox i innych Mozillo-podobnych działa to od razu - nie trzeba ustawiać dodatkowego pozwolenia. Gorąco polecam!
- (2021-10-13) r w: So inconvenient to open saved files unless the extension is installed
- (2021-08-10) Samuele gg: 1st time: blocked on 2/3 of a page and i had to restart my Chrome with tabs opened. It does not allow me to view the downloaded page on a web page editor, it results in a blank page; in comparison with another similar extension "Save page WE", the page on the editor is displayed correctly.

- (2020-11-11) Faisal: LOVED IT
- (2020-09-21) Unknow0059: Amazing extension.
- (2020-09-20) raz lesbol: I am unable to see back the saved files on chrome even with url files allowed and java, even with 7-zip it would be good to change the name and extension to ***Z.html to indicate that it has been saved with single file Z and thus for me totally impossible to see back the saved files with "Allow access to file URLs" enabled in french of chrome !! Useless for me and i suppress this extension that could be very useful if it worked easily on win10 last update and chrome
- (2020-03-23) Dimitrios Paraschas: This exceptional extension deserves a 5.0 rating. Thank you for your excellent work!
- (2020-02-13) Manivan A ManivanRaj: Just the concept, details published and the review is enough to get 4 stars.. will update soon after using it which I am sure will get 5 stars.. Great job.
- (2020-01-25) Mess Info: Великолепное расширение. На некоторых страницах Singlefile отказывается сохранять мне страницу, в то время как Singlefilez справляется с этой проблемой. Другим критерием, на основании которого предпочтение отдаю Singlefilez, является возможность сохранения не всей, а только выделенной части страницы.

- (2019-11-28) Lowe Raivio: Like it alot. In windows, while using Previewpane and with Preview Handler enabled it will however cause problems; Explorer freezes. I had to disable .html files from the Preview Handler in order to avoid this problem. However SingleFile does not have this problem, I can view Those files in the Preview Plane. I like the Idea very much, it's like Dynamic PDF but it actually works. There's plenty of room for additional tools, such as a Editor; I downloaded a Page with SingleFilez, extracted the source, made some changes, opened it in Chrome again and redownloaded it; This allowed me to remove useless information, such as Ads, menus, comments, etc. It would be very cool if I could Change the content while viewing it, i.e. without redownloading the edited Page. Thanks, This is great! :)
- (2019-09-23) Mark G: This is the first time I felt inclined to leave a review because this extension deserves proper recognition. It's absolutely amazing what you've done here, been testing it for a few days and so far it's been working great on Vivaldi. Pages that 'Save Page WE' had issues with, this extension does it without a hitch. For example, older htm files that I have (from 10-15 years ago!) were able to be "converted" with this plugin unifying them into one file without breaking anything. Thank you, super happy I found this extension!
- (2019-09-21) XD Cedar: File name is some random characters and ext is .txt.. I have to change it myself to therealname.html.. Except that, everything goes very well! I really hope there would be an extension that downloads every single file in any page. mhtml is ok but its large volume is not elegant. This extension makes my dream come true.
