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.

Did you read through the thread?
You need to use a third-party tool such as BandiZip, 7-Zip, or WinRAR. Explorer can't deal with the password protected archives and possibly other variables. The third-party tools can.
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.
