Propose a better way to browse the contents of a zip folder in a native 1st party way

    Have a popup text line in explorer that says "you are browsing inside of a compressed file, you must extract the contents to use them" or something. The functionality is already there, when you go to "network" it says "network sharing and discovery is turned off, click here to turn it on"

    Imo not really noob-user friendly.
    My proposal: Keep current behaviour and make a prompt if the user tries to run an executable. Prompt should be something like "You are trying to open an executable, would you like to extract the whole folder in the current directory?". This way the user can still browse the zip with relative ease.
    Upside from Windows: We have only a handful of extensions unlike (afaik) Linux where everything can be made executable and be run.
