I have a simple re-index functionality, and some older archives (application structure) are stored as .tar.gz archives.
The tars are unzipped fine, and they are detected as .tar files within the application, however no entries are found!

I've opened the file in WinRAR, and there most definitely are files within the archive, and they can be extracted with WinRAR.

I'm using VS 2017, C#7 with .Net framework 4.6,
Windows 10 and Mono 4.6
