Research direction

Start by reproducing project creation through the VS Code Spring Initializr extension using the details that trigger the download error. No file or test is named; trace the Spring Initializr Java support download and extraction path, and consider the issue done when a generated project downloads and opens without the “end of central directory record signature not found” error.
