config_explorer File cannot be extracted on Windows

File was uploaded but could not be extracted because the required application (tar/unzip) not found.

I've gotten this on Linux, where I installed unzip to fix the issue. On Windows, unzipping should be natively available, so I'm not sure why it can't extract.

Yeah unfortunatly this feature requires you to use the Linux subsystem in Windows. You can enable it like so: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-au/windows/wsl/install-win10#enable-the-windows-subsystem-for-linux-feature-gui

You can also install cygwin.

It looks like you're calling it through line 47, subprocess. Why not just use PowerShell's Expand-Archive or CMD and CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")?

yeah that seems like a good idea. I don't have any experience with Powershell, but if you did want to send me the code to make this work that I can include it.
