How to unzip a zip file from the terminal?
If the unzip command isn’t already installed on your system, then run:
1 | sudo apt-get install unzip |
After installing the unzip utility, if you want to extract to a particular destination folder, you can use:
1 | unzip file.zip -d destination_folder |
If the source and destination directories are the same, you can simply do:
1 | unzip file.zip |
