I think it is important to know if it is an issue with the actual file (maybe 
corrupt etc, or maybe locked or so), or the combi of the file + on a network 
drive.

If you copy that same qgz file to your local disk, is QGIS then able to open it 
normally?
(if so: then it is network and possibly QGIS related)

Can you try 'unzip/unpack' the file with another 'unzip' program, when it is ON 
the network drive?
(if so it is QGIS/network related)

Note that a qgz file is a 'normal' zip. Just rename it to .zip to look into it. 
You will find the old .qgs file. Which actually is an xml file which you can 
see in an editor.

One of the issues with 'network drives' could be that several people on the 
same time are writing to it? Not sure if it can get corrupt in this way.... 
that is why I propose to look into it, IF you can open it as a zip.

Dear list,

since several weeks I can´t open existing .qgz files from inside an open QGIS 
instance when they are located on a network drive. The error message that 
appears is “Unable to unzip file: …”

There´s no problem when the .qgz is on a local drive or when I open it from the 
windows explorer.

I´m using latest QGIS Desktop 3.34.7 on  Windows 11.

Does anyone know about this problem? Any idea for a solution of this issue will 
be appreciated. In case you think it is a bug, I will post a report.

Thank you,

Simon
