special characters like accents in folder names inside archive seems to give
patoolib.extract_archive(self.input_filename, outdir=extracted_dir, interactive=False)
...
Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.12_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python312\site-packages\patoolib\programs\py_zipfile.py", line 51, in extract_zip
raise util.PatoolError(f"error extracting {archive}") from err

What version of patool are you using? Try patool version 3.0.3 which fixes errors with special characters on windows systems.
And please post the complete error message using the "-v" verbose option.

ok I played a bit changing the archive name to shorte name works, is it because total lenght of arch name, folder, file is too long?
tried verbosity=1 but not sure I see much more...
