The unzip command in Unix is used to extract files from a zip archive. The basic syntax of the unzip command is:
💡
unzip -q archive.zip
The unzip utility is common but not always pre-installed on every distribution. You can quickly add it using your system's package manager: sudo apt update && sudo apt install unzip CentOS/RHEL: sudo yum install unzip Arch Linux: sudo dnf install unzip
: Check if a ZIP file is corrupted before you start the extraction process.
unzip archive.zip -d /path/to/destination
