The word 'tar' refers to the software utility program for archiving many files into an archive file. It was usually called a tarball for distributing or backing up file lots. This is very similar to the x.zip files in Windows.
Recently I needed to open a file of this type in my Windows 10 Professional and I looked at the various Apps in Windows Store. I finally decided to use the app, OpenZip shown here.
Open ZIP+_0.png
This iss downloaded from the Windows Store as shown.
Open ZIP+_1.png
I had downloaded the file with extension tar.gz to the Downloads folder. After launching Open ZIP+, I just browsed the file and extracted to a folder on the desktop.
Open Zip+_2.png
Extracted files were saved to a folder on the computer as shown:
Open Zip+_2.png
Looks like this is a reliable app for this task.
