I have installed a free, open source, native Windows tool called 7-Zip. I
see an option to create or add to a TAR archive.

Also appears to support the writing of 7z, bzip2, gzip, wim, xz and zip
formats. Decompresses a whole bunch of others.

I'd guess the standard linux command, if the machine had this installed:

(or a cygwin, or msys2 or mingw environment).
