Hello, I want to save the “file.7z” file sent from the e-mail to the desktop and unzip it. But I cannot extract the .7z format. I am getting the attached error. What should I do?
Hi @muhammet.sezer2 ,
That is because this activity only supports .zip extension.
To unzip .7z, please follow steps mentioned in below post.

Hello Vishnu,
one way to unpack 7z was as @moenk here wrote , use the Start Process activity with the 7z.exe command line version. Here an example:

Look at the commands and switches of 7z.exe CLI.
It is in no case advisable to use an external activity for Zip/Unzip (not 7Zip), because UiPath offers a build in one, but this support only Zip format, not 7z.

Dont start with an extra program for any archive format, better use 7zip for unpack everything. Use Start Process Activity for calling the exe with parameters, not a script. Also for creating dir with timestamp, there are simple activities to keep the project readable.
