Access Protected ZIP

Accessing a password-protected ZIP involves opening, extracting, or interacting with the contents of a ZIP archive that has been secured with a password. To access a password-protected ZIP file, the correct password is required. Once the correct password is provided, the ZIP file can be decrypted, and its contents can be viewed, extracted, or modified.

Accessing a password-protected ZIP archive using IronZIP involves specifying the password in the second parameter when passing the ZIP file path to the constructor. From here, you can view the archive entries or add more files to the ZIP file and export a new ZIP file.
