write comments about the task. These comments are saved when the dialog is closed with the OKbutton,
and are displayed in the Task Comments Pane.
Decompress File(s)
Decompress file action tasks decompress zipped job files (files compressed as zip files).
Input
This task only accepts ZIPFiles, however it is not necessary that the job file be the ZIP, since this file path
and name can be specified in the task itself.
Processing
Every file in the ZIPis extracted to the specified location. If a folder structure exists in the ZIP, it is respected
in the output folder.
Output
This task outputs the data file it received with no modification. Metadata and job files are not touched either.
