Pretty often I need to add a file to a ZIP or overwrite the file which is already included.
I use right-drag and drop on a ZIP file.
In many cases I get a message that the operation cannot be completed (although in some of the cases it is).
It would be nice to have some ZIP functionality directly inside in XY so it can add something to a ZIP without having to use the OS which aparently not always works and produces redundant confirmation dialogs.
There is a free library based on 7ZIP which can do a lot of things and it can be interated directly into a program.
Drop in ZIP - very unreliable

READ THIS AND DO IT!!!
Please include the following information:
1) Your XYplorer Version (e.g., v28.00.0801)
2) Your Windows Version (e.g., Win 11)
3) Your Screen Scaling Percentage (e.g., 125%).
We strongly recommend adding your Windows Version and Screen Scaling Percentage to the Location field in your Profile or to your Signature. That way, you only have to type them once, and we won't have to search for that vital information.

What is the exact message, and is there any pattern?

Re: Drop in ZIP - very unreliable
Are you zipping folders that contain overlong items (> 259 characters)?
