Unzip the file that is password protected in labview

Hello,

 

How can I unzip the file that is password protected in labVIEW. It is not possible by using Unzip.vi (it is giving an error: Error 42 occurred at NI_Unzip.lvlib:Open unZip File.vi). My OS is Microsoft 10, and I am using labVIEW 2014.

You can try with the OpenG LabVIEW ZIP Library on the Tools Network. It implements the original PKZIP password encription but not yet the more modern AES encryption which is savier.

 

Startup the VI Package Manager and search in there for the Toolkit.

 

If that doesn't work almost all the ZIP tools including 7-ZIP have a command line tool that you can call with the System Exec function in LabVIEW to execute it with appropriate parameters.
