What's the Problem?

I have 7-zip set to open all archives and right now files doesn't use that. It tries using itself (for .zip).

Solution/Idea

It should only attempt to open an archive if file explorer is set to open that type by default.

Alternatives

An alternative is allowing to set files as the default to open .zips in windows default app protocols. (Settings > Apps > default apps > Chose default applications by file type)
