Can Alteryx unzip a file as part of the workflow?

I'm downloading climate data and the files come zipped. Can Alteryx unzip the files as part of the workflow?

 

The path to one of the files is

Hi, I have encounter some problems when using your workflow. Could you please give me some insight? 

 

Alteryx will automatically pop-up a Windows cmd.exe interface when the workflow runs to the run command tool, which asks me "Would you like to replace the existing file?". 

 

I have to enter "Y” a couple of times in the pop-up Windows cmd.exe interface to proceed the remaining part of the workflow.

 

Therefore, I would like to know, whether Alteryx can finish the above manual action. So, the workflow can be run automatically.
