Unable to extract Zip file to my Drive

Hello,

When I use WinRAR, I cannot select the folders from my Google Drive for desktop; it shows me strange subfolders that do not match the structure of my Drive folders (see image).

How can I fix this please and what is it due to?

Thank you

    Hi

    Winrar is a program on your computer, Google Drive is an online site.

    Sometimes, a program that does a big job like decompressing archives (often large in size) cannot decompress anywhere other than in the same folder on the disk on the computer.

    Place the archive in a folder on your disk on your computer and decompress it in the same location. Then you can upload the files back to Google Drive after decompression.

    Google Drive on its site takes your files and it is possible that it sends something to your screen to display, a reconstructed image that is updated progressively in a way.

    These two don’t seem to be made to work together in any case.
