Unzip and overwrite if file exists

What I want to do is unzip file into an existing directory and overwrite older file if it exists.

I am using this command to unzip file:

ZipFile.ExtractToDirectory(path + file_name_zip, path);

Use ZipFileExtensions.ExtractToFile

Extracts an entry in the zip archive to a file, and optionally overwrites an existing file that has the same name.

foreach (ZipArchiveEntry entry in archive.Entries)
                {
                    if (entry.FullName.EndsWith(".txt", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
                    {
                        entry.ExtractToFile(Path.Combine(extractPath, entry.FullName), true);
                    }
                }
