(Urgent) Configuration in Run Command Tools

Hi All, 

 

Currently, I am working on unzipping the file in Alteryx workflow, and the workflow contains a run command tool for the unzip action.

 

However, it 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.

 

I have attached a sample dummy data and my workflow in this post down below. Thanks all of you.

Open a command window, and figure out how to structure the correct command parameters to avoid the pop-up.  Then use that command in the Run Command tool.

 

Have any of the prior posts on this subject helped you?

I typed "unzip run command" (without the quotation marks) into the search bar.
