Examples

In this example, entries that use encryption are extracted using a particular password.

CopyC#

using (var zip = ZipFile.Read(FilePath))
{
    foreach (ZipEntry e in zip)
    {
        if (e.UsesEncryption)
            e.ExtractWithPassword("Secret!");
        else
            e.Extract();
    }
}

Using zip As ZipFile = ZipFile.Read(FilePath)
    Dim e As ZipEntry

          e.ExtractWithPassword("Secret!")
