Uhh, couldn't reproduce using different archive, might only be under certain conditions, will check.

Comment 2 rebel_catatonic373 2023-11-20 03:09:46 UTC

I believe it only works when the archive format is .rar and possibly when there's a secondary folder in the main archive with the same name, will check...

Tried with another .rar archive with the same qualities, same observation. Waiting for another member to confirm.

Comment 4 TheFeelTrain 2024-02-25 07:25:26 UTC

I am getting the exact same bug, same folder layout. Happens when dragging a sub folder with the same name as the main folder.
