I dowloaded a zip archive from the internet and all the files have paths as their names. For example 'assets/css/whatever.css'. I assume that when the creator of the archive compressed the format, their compressor converted all the folders into files with the name as their previous path, now there are no paths and just a lot of files in one folder, is there any way of bringing back these folders?

the question is self-contradictory; does the zip archive have paths likeassets/css/
in it, or not?
