Extracting Files From Password Protect Zip File

[InclusiveExclusion]

Hey Guys,

Looking for tips on how to extract files from a password protected zip file with AutoIT.  Checked out Wraithdu's zip udf but doesn't look like it supports PW protected zips.  Can someone point me in the right direction please?

You need free component , or you can use AutoIt UDF that require a commercial product (Chilkat) ?

Look at the docu for the commandline switches of an unpacker of your choice. This command e.g. works for rar.exe.

Local $sCmd = '"C:\Program Files\WinRAR\RAR.exe" x "' & $sFilename & '" -p' & $sPassword & ' -o+'

You can also use the popular program 7-Zip. It is free, even for commercial use.

Here is a syntax example :

; Description :
; You will need the latest commandline tools of 7-Zip and the file 7z.dll
;   7za.exe   : without GUI
;   7zG.exe   : with GUI (optional) :
;               useful for larger amounts of data to display the running process.
;   7z.dll
;   7-zip.chm : Helpfile (optional)
;
; ==> I have attached the required programs, see : 7-Zip-Files-Version1900.zip

Global $s7ZipDir, $sCommand, $sSourceDir, $sDestDir, $sZIPFile, $sPassword
$s7ZipDir   = @ScriptDir ; directory where the tools and the .dll are located
$sZIPFile   = "Test.zip" ; name of the .zip file
$sSourceDir = @ScriptDir & '\source' ; *** just an example
$sDestDir   = @ScriptDir & '\destination' ; *** just an example
$sPassword  = 'password'

; Example 1 : Create a password protected .zip file
;    -> in case you want a GUI :
;    ---> replace 7za.exe with 7zG.exe
;    ---> replace @SW_HIDE with @SW_SHOW
$sCommand = $s7ZipDir & '\7za.exe a -y -tzip "' & $sZIPFile & '" "' & $sSourceDir & '"  -p' & $sPassword & ' -mem=AES256'
RunWait ($sCommand, "", @SW_HIDE)

; Example 2 : Unzip a password protected .zip file
$sCommand = $s7ZipDir & '\7za.exe x "' & $sZIPFile & '" -o"' & $sDestDir & '" -aoa -p' & $sPassword & ' -y'
RunWait ($sCommand, "", @SW_HIDE)
If @error Then
    MsgBox(BitOR(4096, 16), "Error : ", "Unable to unzip the file")
EndIf

EDIT : For the test, create a subfolder \source in the script directory and copy some files into it.

Thanks guys, I ended up using the 7zip UDF.  Supports extracting password protected zip files pretty good.
