I don't use Windows zip, this has taken place using 7zip with Win8.
Guide is also installed as c:\guide9.
Files found their way in the AppData\Roaming folder.

7zip is an installed program and Win8 does not like an installed program
trying to move files in a root folder on your drive, instead it redirect
to the user appdata folders.
