Dear Reader, sometimes
you may have encountered a situation where you came to know that the Zip file
you created or downloaded, which indeed carries data that is much needed to you
but all of a sudden, to your biggest surprise, you get an error message from
Windows showing:
"Windows cannot open the archive C:\Abc.zip is invalid "
This is where, it becomes

3. In case you have transferred the Zip file from your smartphone to PC, try to copy that file again (only if it’s working on your smartphone) otherwise head towards repair of your Zip file.
4. Zip file attacked by Virus and/or other malicious software that damaged its data/code.
5. Corrupted zip file headers, Sometimes your zip file has it's headers corrupted only and with this error, you've probably have high chance of data recovery. Errors such as "Unsupported Compression Method"
6. Zip file created on Android's internal memory but larger in size as such in my case 4.67GB especially using method deflate only..
