"file_name" should get the file path to your "zip" archive. This path likely ends in "ks.zip" but likely has a prefix -- either to form an "absolute" path (one starting with "/") or a relative path starting from the "current working directory". > ... > # opening the zip file in READ mode > with ZipFile(file_name, 'r') as zip: In the "with" block, "zip" is a "ZipFile Object". Read its documentation in the "zipfile" module documentation. Especially look at "namelist" (this give you the member names of the archive) and "open" or "read". The members of a folder in the "zip" archive will be charaterized by a name prefix, ending in the folder name followed by "/". There may (or may not) be a prefix before the folder name. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
