Hi,
based on some searching the internet you can do something along this:
folder = pwd;
files = dir(fullfile(folder,'*.zip'));
for i=1:numel(files)
system(sprintf('"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\WinZip\\WINZIP32.EXE" -min -e -o "%s"',fullfile(folder,files(i).name)))
end
Maybe you need some other arguments etc. But you can figure that out by searching the web for the arguments winzip supports.
