[SOLVED] How to extract all compressed Z files in a directory?

Issue

I am on Fedora 35 and I have a directory full of .Z I have to extract within the directory. Here is an example of how they are named:

GIRAF.2021-02-14T00:59:35.569.fits.Z

I was wondering if there was a command I could type in the terminal that extracts all .Z files in the directory?

Solution

The solution is given by rickhg12hs.

First, try gunzip -vt *.Z to see if there are any problems.

If none, then gunzip *.Z
