  The Case of the Failed File Compression
Time: 01:59 EST/06:59 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Mark Russinovich: The other day Bryce tried to use Explorer’s Send To Compressed (zipped) Folder feature, seen below, to package up his latest Process Monitor source code updates to send me.

Instead of presenting compression progress dialog followed by an opportunity to edit the name of resulting compressed file, Explorer aborted the compression

Bryce was perplexed. The error didn’t seem to make any sense because he obviously had read permission to the files in the selection, which he’d just finished editing, and compressing files shouldn’t involve some kind of search that could result in a file not being found. He retried the compression operation, but got the same error, this time after a different number of files had finished compressing.

I happened to walk into his office at this point and he showed me the behavior by trying a few more times, all with the same outcome. Now both of us were perplexed. It was time to investigate, and the tool we called on for the job was, somewhat ironically, Process Monitor. (continue at source)
