Dear All,After recent Windows update I cannot extract ZIP files from downloaded ZIP folders. When I use "Extract all" function, new unzipped folder is created in desired location, but it is completely empty (regardless the target location I choose). It says "This folder is empty". I also cannot copy-paste the files from ZIP folder, open them or transfer them for example to the desktop. The only function that works is to delete them.
