A GAR file may also be a Zip-compressed archive used by Ghidra, an open source software disassembler developed by the National Security Agency (NSA). It contains a project, which may include one or more imported .EXE programs, and is compressed to reduce the size of the project. GAR files are typically used for backing up projects or transferring them to another location.
