Hi there torbachkristensen, sorry to jump in here.

Hi Walter,
How long will take to your developers to fix this old bug instead of advice to "try 3rd party app for unzipping/decompressing"? 🧐 Yes, it's likely some app can do the trick. It's clear that in some cases (not always) Dropbox makes folders letter cases mismatch. While this isn't typically a issue for systems (like Windows) where paths are not case sensitive, for most other systems (not only Linux and Mac) it can be an issue (like discussed here)! 🤷😡
Remind to your system developers/designers to fix this.
