Marc, you should really look into https://jazz.net/library/article/1000 if you are new to the SDK. It also mentions the issue with windows zip and hints using 7ZIP.
Unfortunately Windows in general has issues with long path names for ages now and it does not seem to get better. Windows is the only OS I have seen these issues with. I gave up using the built in Zip on windows long time ago. 7Zip is the better choice.
If you develop using the SDK, you also want to make sure to pick a folder that is reasonably close to the root, since the long path names of the plugins/features can cause Windows to choke on deleting the files - because of a path length bigger than what Windows assumes as normal.
Finally, you want to avoid to install Jazz Servers into "Program Files" because the folder is virtualized and removes permissions to create files and folders unless you explicitly run "As Administrator". This effect is caused by safety measures Windows imposes to reduce risk.
