Unable to open .zip file on iPhone.

Keep getting error “the operation couldn’t be completed. Inappropriate file type or format” when trying to open a .zip file on iPhone X with iOS 15.5. I’m using Files to open it. I’ve tried both a straight tap and a long hold/uncompress, same error. I’ve restarted my phone and redownloaded the file, nothing works.
