The Continua CI action runs the 7-Zip command line. Is there a difference between the command line in your script and the one logged by the action?

The action generates a file which contains the list of files to pass to the command line, so this is possibly where the issue is occurring.

We have just released a [new version](https://www.finalbuilder.com/forums/t/continua-ci-v1-9-2-1416-released/7576/2) with some new options added to the 7-Zip Create action.

- Max Files to Log - change this to ensure all files matching the pattern are logged.
- Skip deletion of temporary list file - tick this so you can check what’s in the list file passed to the command line. You will need to ensure that your build clean-up settings are not set to clean up at the end of the build.
- Output Verbosity - set this to Detailed or Debug to see the list of files added by 7-Zip.
