Bug Description
edit: sorry, brainfart. Title should be winRAR not winzip. It was a zip file. Just edited the title.
When I drag an ebook file from Winrar to Calibre, Calibre tries to identify the file as the mouse cursor enters the window BEFORE the drop event has occurred, but Winrar doesn't extract the file to the temporary location until AFTER the drop event has occurred.
Calibre throws an error as soon as the mouse cursor enters the Calibre window because it can't find the file because the file doesn't exist yet.
calibre, version 5.26.0

It finds the file just fine if I extract the file to a folder and then drag and drop it into Calibre.
edit: It finds it fine with or without the path embedded in the zip file.
