How Do I Unzip A File Using Terminal?

For this we will use the unzip command.

If the unzip command isn't already installed on your system, then run:

sudo apt-get install unzip

After installing the unzip utility, if you want to extract to a particular destination folder, you can use:

unzip file.zip -d destination_folder

If the source and destination directories are the same, you can simply do:

unzip file.zip
