Unarchive fails to restore 'sym-lib-table' [solved]

Trying to ‘unarchive’ a project, I found I kept receiving a ‘Rescue library…’ message.

After some research, I found that the unarchive did NOT unzip the “sym-lib-table” file. The file was present in the .Zip file. WinZIP works fine; but, not the built-in unarchive function.

My Version info:
Application: KiCad
Version: (5.1.5)-3, release build
Libraries:
wxWidgets 3.0.4
libcurl/7.66.0 OpenSSL/1.1.1d (Schannel) zlib/1.2.11 brotli/1.0.7 libidn2/2.2.0 libpsl/0.21.0 (+libidn2/2.1.1) nghttp2/1.39.2
Platform: Windows 8 (build 9200), 64-bit edition, 64 bit, Little endian, wxMSW
Build Info:

This has been fixed by JP and will be present in version 5.1.6

Thank you, I’ll wait for the release. I’ll use my WinZIP, until then.
