  1. How to properly deal with a zipbomb?


    Recently, i've noticed how easy it is to download one, easy as searching up downloads for it, and you'll see 3 to 8 sites having downloads for zipbombs, on the first pageany unknown user could download one and have a bad timehence the name "zipbomb"as for me, its poor impulse control that could make me do some stupid thingsnow lets say a zipbomb WAS unzipped and its gigabytes, terabytes petabytes in size, how to recover from that?is it as simple as just deleting the file, does windows just refuse the entire thing and say its too big so it didn't unzip it at all,will it upzip as much as it can

    :)
