I had a bug last week. Some people on the team had certain files missing in ZIP-files generated by our back-end. So I downloaded the ZIP-files from the back-end and it worked fine for me. Asked them to sent me the ZIP-files directly, I could extract all files. I had no clue why it didn't work for them but I knew that they ran Windows. So I installed Windows 10 22H2 in a VM and as it turns out, having "->" in the filename causes Windows to ignore those files when extracting a ZIP-file.
