There is a folder that contains many folders and subfolders, and each of these contains any number of password-protected 7zip archives. The password is the same for all of them. These are single-layer archives (no archives within archives).
I am trying to extract all of them in a single command in such a way that:
- Every file will be extracted to the directory in which its original archive was located without a subfolder being created for it,
- Each original archive file will be deleted,
- and the password will be input automatically by the command.
I already know this needs to be some kind of script since the 7zip context menu doesn't allow to do this AFAIK. However, I am not well-versed in command-line usage and would really appreciate if someone could provide a script I could copy-paste...
I already looked through a bunch of answers, including the following that describe a similar situation minus the password aspect:
- https://superuser.com/questions/240853/how-do-i-extract-all-zip-files-in-subfolders-using-7-zip-on-windows-7 (I Don't know how to use this)
- How do I extract all archives in the subdirectories of this folder? (I was able to figure out how to build in the password, but I am not sure how to tell it Y to all overwrites or how to add the delete the archive function)
