How to decompress plesk backup files onto windows desktop?
I realise you need to first add a file extension .gz works but when you decompress that you're left with another file which also needs an extension - does anyone know what extension to use?

Was the Plesk file made on a Linux or Windows machine. My guess is it was LINUX. You really can get a linux .tar.gz file to decompress on Windows.. it just won't be usable even if you do get it uncompressed in most cases.
You can try PowerArchiver

which will decompress it but not knowing what exactly you compressed I can't tell you if it will work.

You can get the latest version of Winrar here: http://bit.ly/1o0M15D
I like Winrar because it's a very good program to compress/decompress files in many different formats. You could also use other programs like 7zip or winzip for the same purpose but I think Winrar is the best option avalable. The funcionalities are pretty much the same for each program (you basically do everything with a simple right-click of your mouse) but Winrar is by far the best option.
The things I like about winrar is that it opens a bunch of compressed formats: .zip, .rar, .7z / 7zip, .iso, .tar, .jar etc. (much more than the other programs) and that it's 100% (trial period never expired so you can use it for free with no limitations)
These are the reasons why I recommend Winrar.
