I downloaded an exe from here, then opened a terminal, navigated to the directory where I saved it then typed the file name of the app followed by --decompress then the filename of the bz2 file I wanted to decompress
C:\data\software>bzip2-102-x86-win32.exe --decompress myfile.bz2
use
C:\data\software>bzip2-102-x86-win32.exe --help
to get other options
C:\data\software>bzip2-102-x86-win32.exe --decompress myfile.bz2
use
C:\data\software>bzip2-102-x86-win32.exe --help
to get other options
