Hi rsingh40,
If you have .NET framework 4.5 it now has System.IO.Compression.ZipFile class.
Only 1 line of code is needed to zip or unzip a file as shown below.

But if you have lower versions then you might have to either use a 3rd party dll or write your own zip compression algorithm.
There are other compression classes made available by Microsoft like DeflateStream and GZipStream, which compress the files but they create extensions other than .zip.

If you have .NET framework 4.5 I can assist you on using that code.
This post will help you to get started with including namespaces and references.

Hi Lela,
This seems to be easily doable from the command line with the help of these links.
i. https://stackoverflow.com/questions...ract-a-password-protected-zip-file-on-windows
From the above link it looks like the below is the command to extract using the key
"C:/Program Files (86)/old7-zip/7z.exe" x -pKey "C:/YOURE_ZIP_PATH"
..but go through the other answers too.
ii. Also refer the Command e (for extract) section in the below link
https://www.dotnetperls.com/7-zip-examples
iii. For doing this through the power shell refer the 'Best answer' in the below link
https://community.spiceworks.com/to...-using-7-zip-with-password-protected-zip-file
Power shell is free tool included with Windows. You can search this forum on how to use Power shell.
Post back with which options you implemented and how did it go.
