unzipping a file that has "/" or "?" in track names

Certain apps for the PC can’t unzip a folder if a track title has a / or a ? in a track title. I know this is only for certain apps and that others can unzip without a problem (like 7-zip). Can someone let us know if there are other unzipping apps for the PC don’t have a problem dealing with punctuation?
Thanks!

from what little i know, i think the limit is the filesystem, not the unzipping app. i think the windows filesystem doesnt let you use things like / ? : etc. if i rename the files in the archive before unzipping, i can unzip fine with whichever app i want. this is just my experience though, so i could be very wrong.

that’s accurate, it’s a windows problem

that being said, there are characters you can use that look very similar to the above to replace that if you’re worried about keeping the file name with those characters in tact
