So I encrypted one of my directories using 7z. with a password. When I open it using the GUI it says Password required... what I want is to do this through terminal. First thing I tried was xdg-open but that brought me back to the GUI. When I tried to research this all it gave me was how to unzip the file. Thank you in advance.

You only need the -p parameter for that. So if my password is 123 the line would read

7z x -p123 file.7z
