Bug: When a ZIP file is opened via file association, the Extract Button is not displayed on the toolbar

[sharpninja]

Description

I have Files set as my default handler for Zip files. When I download a zip file in MS Edge and then open that zip file from Edge, Files is opened as expected, but the Extract button is not visible.

If Files loses focus and regains focus, the extract button will show up on the refresh.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Set Files as the default handler for ZIP files
2. Download a ZIP File in MS Edge
3. Open the downloaded ZIP file in MS Edge
4. Once Files opens, notice that there is no Extract button
5. Switch focus to a different application in Windows.
6. Switch focus back to Files, notice that the Extract button will appear.

Requirements

• e.g. Fix crash that occurs when...
  At step 4, the Extract button should be visible.

Files Version

3.4.0.0

Windows Version

10.0.22621.3593

Just noticed an update is available, so I updated to 3.4.1.0 and problem remains.

I would like to solve this. Can I know where the AddressToolbarViewModel gets its Data from?

This button's visibility is managed by the view model of the toolbar.

This button's visibility is managed by the view model of the toolbar.

I checked and I can find it being true. But the button is still not visible.

AddressToolBarViewModel is called twice once for Home and second time for the zip file. CanExtract is true for the zip file, but I think it overrides its CanExtract with Home.

So after some debugging, I think that once the new tab is open into a zip file, Update_ViewModel is not being called immediatly, and only waits till there is a chance (the mouse hovering over). This bug also appears when you simple right clip open a zip file. I think I can fix this, but when exactly is this function called? I was having trouble tracing the call stack
