thanks, yes that's the code we can copy paste to PAD and get your actions.
I will test tomorrow

I think @VJR is right, and this is what might be happening:
@Anonymous You said your files are cloud based. That means OneDrive downloads then "on demand" when you access them. Hence you have light green tick.
When you open Excel etc. it waits for the file to download.
In case of PAD (just guessing as of now) what could be happening:
1. Flow checks if the file exist, but although it is in the cloud, the local stub is seen by apps as a real file. So pad checks if the file exist, it does (although it is stub, not full file). OneDrive starts downloading
2. Flow immediately tries to extract the file, but it is still being dowloaded by OneDrive - hence the error.
What you could do to test the theory - mark the folder as always offline (right click on it and you will have the option under onedrive menu)

@KJ I have tested on my Win 11 machine and 5MB zip with "test" as a password:
1. Folder contained zip files stored in onedrive, I have set this to "cloud" so it is not present on the machine, but gets downloaded each time any software wants to use it/open.
Results are:
1. Wait for file action treats the stub as a real file and it proceeds with next action
2. Unarchive action triggers OneDrive mechanism, it recognises that file was called by software and OD downloads the file and PAD is able to extract without issues.
When writing that you are able to open them manually, is that with 7zip or other 3rd party or built in compressed files functionality? Maybe these ZIP files are encrypted with methods (encryption?) not supported by the OS/PAD?
For example, when you create encrypted with 7zip and use AES-256 you will not be able to extract it on Win 10 natively.
