How to fix?

The "fix", as stated above a few times, is to use a third-party program, such as 7-Zip, Bandizip, WinRAR, etc.

Using 7zip made it work for me after countless videos failed to give me a fix. Thank you very much!

I have same problem when trying to extract a zipped/RAR file of a game.
Microsoft had mentioned that they could handle file extraction without the need for 7zip/WinRAR,
but I wasn't able to extract the file successfully using their method this time.
As a result, I decided to reinstall WinRAR, and that resolved the problem, allowing me to successfully extract the game file.
