Description

Details

VM-Unzip-Recursively uses an absolute path to look for the main ZIP in the Desktop, but uses relative paths to look for the extracted ZIPs. This causes that the function only works if it is run from the Desktop.

Research direction

Find the VM-Unzip-Recursively entry point and inspect how it resolves the main ZIP versus extracted ZIPs. Reproduce the failure from a non-Desktop working directory, then verify the function can recursively unzip the package from another directory without relying on the current location.
