I have a zip file in my DAM path and I need to extract those files without using any code. Is it possible? If yes then how?

I found the solution.
We can change user preferences and enable "show desktop actions for assets". After that we can directly upload a zip file or we can upload parent folder (child folders will come along as in our machine). For a zip file we can select it and select "Extract archive".

Hi, I have enabled the option "show desktop actions for assets" but can't able to see Extract archive option in there 

Can you help with that?
Thanks in advance:)
