Error when extracting some installer .exes, no error with 7zip

To see this issue download the installer for Textify here:

Homepage: https://ramensoftware.com/textify Installer direct link: https://ramensoftware.com/downloads/textify_setup.exe

Extract this file with both NanaZip and 7zip. 7zip will extract it with no errors. NanaZip will fail with "Data Error : uninstall.exe.nsis"

I would assume that NanaZip should be able to extract the file without an error as it uses the same underlying code.

NanaZip 2.0.450.0 7zip 23.01

Could possibly be related to this, as it mentions another NSIS installer that can't be extracted:

NanaZip 2.0.450.0 uses an older version of 7z.

That exe extracts without error using https://github.com/M2Team/NanaZip/releases/tag/3.0.756 which uses 7z 23.01.

I've been using version 3 without problem for the past week. Give it a try?
