in reply to SOLVED: Archive::Zip unable to unzip with native windows 7

If you're attaching a Linux path when zipping, a Windows unzip might well choke on the (foreign to 'doze) path. <update - forgot to mention> Your assertion that you succeed when "use(ing) zip from linux" to unzip the file at the Windows ip may tend to support that hypothesis.</update>

IIRC, Windows unzip does (or used to) offer retaining or ignoring the path found in the .zip file. Is it worthwhile to experiment with telling it to ignore that path?
