A tool or program that restores URL-encoded strings to their original format is called a URL decoder. URL encoding, sometimes referred to as percent-encoding, is used to represent characters in a URL that, if used in their raw form, web browsers or servers could interpret incorrectly. These consist of special symbols, spaces, and non-ASCII characters, which are substituted with % and two hexadecimal numbers that indicate the ASCII value of the character.
