I cranked up a Windows 10 machine and I see the same thing.

Using 7-Zip:

https://www.7-zip.org/

for the extraction worked.

Must be something with the Windows built-in unzip code.

I generally keep 7-Zip on Windows machines because it can handle a
variety of compressed formats. When you install it will show up in the
context menu when you right click on a compressed file.
