Can´t delete files inside archives since latest updates

Hello,

deleting files inside archives doesnt work for me since 1-2 weeks. It always shows me the popup "file is used by another process" while its not.

I noticed the same problem with Quake III .pk3 archives which are basically normal zip files, just with a different extension. And indeed it seems like the extension is the problem, because once I rename the archive to .zip, deleting files works again.

Simple way to reproduce this issue:

echo test > test.txt
nanazipc a test.pk3 test.txt  # Everything is Ok
nanazipc d test.pk3 test.txt  # Error: cannot delete the file test.pk3 (file is used by another process)
mv test.pk3 test.7z
nanazipc d test.7z test.txt  # Everything is Ok

From the GitHub releases, the first version that fails is NanaZip_5.0.1250.0.msixbundle and the last version that works is NanaZipPreview_5.0.1243.0.msixbundle.

Editing in place is also affected by this issue (tried with CryEngine .pak archives)
