Unable to open exported file

I am having trouble opening a file exported from Fusion 360. The file was exported as a zip file. When I tried to open it, I encounter an error saying "file is invalid". I have used a zip repair program called Disk Internals but  the resulting repair did not include the exported file. Has anyone run into an error like this?

Can you Attach the file here?

Did you Unzip the file?

Using Windows, I Attempted To "Unzip"This File I Referred To A Number Of Times. I Always Encountered A Message Saying "File Is Invalid". 

 

I Searched The Internet For A Resolution To This Error.  A The Program Called Disk Internals Successfully Unzipped The File.  Even Though The File Extensions Of The Unzipped Files Match The Type Permitted To Attach To This Reply, They Were All Rejected When I Attempted To Send This Reply Message.

 

I Am Unsure How To Proceed, And/Or If There Is A Resolution To The Error I Referred To Above.

Stu Dent, 

I think that you are really confused here so more information will be required.

1. Exactly who, "Exported the file as a zip file?"  (Fusion 360 does not export *.zip format.)

2. Why have you not Attached the *.zip file here for diagnosis by the experts? (Attach the *.zip file, not the extracted file.)

3. Can you post some screen capture images of your file in Windows File Explorer? Win E and Shift Win S and then Ctrl V here in a Reply.  (Logical steps to proceed.)

The tone of the last reply I received was rude and condescending. It
does not merit a response.
