How do I save all files into a folder?
Some newer browsers allow the saving of multiple files & folders into a designated target folder in one go. If you wish to extract all files in the ZIP archive and maintain existing folder structure, follow the steps the below:
-
Follow the above instructions to open ZIP file
-
Click on "Save All". If the button is disabled, it means your browser does not support this feature or it is not enabled.
In Chrome, you can enable it by toggling following setting:chrome://flags/#native-file-system-api
(copy/paste it into your browser address bar)
-
Select an empty folder where you wish to extract the files. Please note: If you already have files with the same name, ezyZip WILL OVERWRITE THEM.
-
After you have selected the folder, the browser will ask for permission to access it. Click on "View files" followed by "Save changes".
-
It will then commence saving files and subfolders into the target you specified
