Oh, that's for sure. Is there an easy way to mount .tar on Windows?

I have some library data which would benefit from serving as a single/a couple of large files, but most of the folks would be on Windows. VHDX is out of question (would be modified as soon as mounted)... maybe .iso ?

Not sure about Windows. On Linux we use https://github.com/mxmlnkn/ratarmount

For the use case of "mountable archive on windows" there's .wim files, but that use case is pretty small and there is no reason to pick it over .iso here.
