      Workaround is to use PowerShell to unzip the file, not GUI. It worked for me:

      $src = "C:\Users\karm\Documents\3.1.0-CR7\hibernate-dist-3.1.0-CR7.zip"
$dst = "C:\Users\karm\Documents\3.1.0-CR7\"
Add-Type -assembly "system.io.compression.filesystem"
[io.compression.zipfile]::ExtractToDirectory($src, $dst)
      Show

      Unzip hibernate zip in GUI

      Apparently, the depth of nested directories and a very long file name is too much for the GUI unzip.

      GUI fails

      PowerShell works

      Call to action

      Document it? KB article? I don't think we should do anything else.
