$exts = @("*.n64", "*.z64", "*.v64"); Get-ChildItem -Filter "*.zip" | ForEach-Object { Expand-Archive $_.FullName -DestinationPath "$($_.BaseName)_temp" -Force; Get-ChildItem "$($_.BaseName)_temp\*" -File -Include $exts | Move-Item -Destination .; Remove-Item "$($_.BaseName)_temp" -Recurse -Force }
