How to open and extract ZIP files safely
Review the archive list before opening extracted files.
Check names and paths
A ZIP can contain nested folders and misleading names. Inspect the full path and extension.
Be cautious with programs and scripts
Do not run unexpected executable files from unknown sources.
Preserve folders when needed
Projects and backups may depend on their original structure. Folder saving can preserve it in supported browsers.
Keep the original until verified
Confirm important files open correctly before deleting the source ZIP.
