Default batch unzip to original path


I have hundreds of ZIP files located within different branches of the root
folder. Is there available a batch unzip program which can find all the
ZIP's in a folder and extract the contents to the ZIP's original path?

Cheers!

Marty

That should be "find all the ZIP's in a folder-tree..."

Cheers!

Using Info-ZIP's freeware UnZip[1] you could try:

for /R %I in ("C:\Foldername\*.zip") do unzip "%~fI"

I'd be careful though - if some of the zip files don't have their path
information saved, or were from a different drive letter, you could end up
with a bit of a mess!
