Reading terminal output in Python

Question

I'm trying to open zip in terminal in python using subprocess, but I'm getting an error.

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory.

my purpose is to see if the process is successful or unsuccessful after opening the zip file and to print it.

Also my code:

from subprocess import run
output = run("unzip -P password /Users/username/Desktop/something.zip -d /Users/Desktop/Desktop/something", capture_output=True).stdout
print(output)

How can I fix the problem?

Change

output = run("unzip -P password /Users/username/Desktop/something.zip -d /Users/Desktop/Desktop/something", capture_output=True).stdout

to

output = run(["unzip", "-P", "password", "/Users/username/Desktop/something.zip", "-d", "/Users/Desktop/Desktop/something"], capture_output=True).stdout
