The solution is to prevent the shell from expanding the wildcard. You can do this in two primary ways:

The shell expands stage/* before unzip sees it. If no files match in the current directory, the literal string stage/* is passed.

If after trying these solutions you still encounter issues, consider providing more details about your specific scenario for more targeted advice.

Linux and macOS filesystems are often case-sensitive. If your file is named Stage_Components.zip and you type stage*.zip , the system will not find it. Double-check your spelling and casing by running ls first. Common Scenarios and Examples Scenario A: Extracting Multiple ZIP Files At Once

unar archive.zip -d stage/components/
