Prusa Slicer not recognizing Tningiverse .stl file
I'm a newbie to Prusa with just 2 small prints done. We have an MK4 running Windows 11 on a PC. I found an .stl file on Thingiverse and downloaded the zipped file.
In Cura LE in the past, I would then use File Explorer to locate that zipped file and click on it and in ther would be File Explorer folders which I could click on and find the ,stl file I needed to print. I would then open that file in Cura LE and scale it or make multiple copies and then cut the gcode to an sd card and then insert that sd card into our Lulzbot printer and it would print.
Now when I follow that process and open the Prusa Slicer (updated 2 days ago) it doesn't see the .stl file in that zipped file.
I haven't had to unzip zipped files using Cura so is there a way to ensure the Prusa Slicer recognizes .stl file(s) in a zipped file downloaded from Thingiverse?
Thank you for your help.

Oui, il faut l'enlever du dossier zippé, soit du copie et coller ailleurs ou tu le decompresse.

C'est chouette que tu t'intéresse au monde de l'impression 3D, en plus tu commence avec une très belle machine. Bonne chance

Maybe I am missing something but I think you can not open a zipped stl file directly from Prusa Slicer. What you can do however is to open the zipped file by windows Explorer and by double clicking on the stl file there you can open it with Prusa Slicer (if Prusa Slicer is the default program for stl files). If thats not an option for you I guess you have to simply unzip the stl file.
