In Archive Manager, select the files that you want to extract.
Click Extract.
Specify the directory where Archive Manager will extracts the files.
Choose from the following extraction options:
|
Option |
Description |
|
All files |
Extracts all files from the archive. |
|
Selected files |
Extracts the selected files from the archive. |
|
Files |
Extracts from the archive all files that match the specified pattern. |
|
Keep directory structure |
Reconstructs the directory structure when extracting the specified files. For example, you specify /tmp in the Filename text box and extract all files. The archive contains a subdirectory called doc. If you select the Keep directory structure option, Archive Manager extracts the contents of the subdirectory to /tmp/doc. If you do not select the Keep directory structure option, Archive Manager does not create any subdirectories. Instead, it extracts all files from the archive, including files from subdirectories, to /tmp. |
|
Do not overwrite newer files |
If not active, the Archive Manager overwrites any files in the destination directory that have the same name as the specified files. If you select this option, Archive Manager does not extract the specified file if an existing file with the same name already exists in the destination directory. |
Click Extract.
To extract an archived file in a file manager window without opening Archive Manager, right-click the file and select Extract Here.
The Extract operation extracts a copy of the specified files from the archive. The extracted files have the same permissions and modification date as the original files that were added to the archive.
The Extract operation does not change the contents of the archive.
