Hi Jan
I checked the permissions on the directory and my user is assigned all the possible permissions.
The extraction is extracting other files and failing to extract the specific file on the image on windows.
Hence it then fails to complete the extraction.

Fact that you are the primary administrator does not imply that winzip runs under the local administrator and have rights to write to the specific location
C:\users\xxx\AppData\Local\Temp\...
just create a C:\Temp directory with permission for all to write to and extract there.

Are you sure that account you have logged to the Windows and who executes winzip command have permission to write to location stated in the error message?

I am trying to install IBM Db2 Client for getting ODBC driver but it's failing to unzip the file.
It is failing with the above error.
Any idea what might cause this or anyone who have experienced such an issue.
I have installed WinZip extractor thinking it might help but still there was nothing that worked.
Thank you for your support
