How to extract passowrd protected ZIP file using shell32 in c#?

Question

I have written some code in C#, however, it fails if my ZIP file is password protected otherwise extracts the file if there is no password protection.

Shell32.ShellClass sc = new Shell32.ShellClass();            
Shell32.Folder SrcFlder = sc.NameSpace("c:\\test1.zip");
Shell32.Folder DestFlder = sc.NameSpace("c:\\test");
Shell32.FolderItems items = SrcFlder.Items();
DestFlder.CopyHere(items,20);

Use DotNetZip is a free open-source library for working with zip files. It supports password protected files so it should be just what you are after.
