📁 Output Structure

extracted/
├── layer_1/
│   └── ...
├── layer_2/
│   └── ...
├── final_locked_layer.zip  ← If password-protected
└── extraction_log.txt      ← Full extraction log

---

📓 Log Format

Each extraction layer is logged with detected archive type and filename. If password protection is found, you'll see:

[Layer 3] sample_protected.zip requires password
  → Encapsulated files: secret.txt, data.json
