Checkout often fails early on windows at version >=4

Hi there, I hope this issue is posted to the correct recipient. I believe it is.

I am running this action in a GIthub Actions workflow where this is the first step of a larger pipeline. Often it works, but some times it fails very early on. That prompts me to restart the flow, and then it usually works. Below is a snippet of the error message I get.

This is a windows runner.

Exception calling "ExtractToDirectory" with "2" argument(s): "Could not find a part of the path 'this is an absolute path to a file in my solution in the runners workspace'"
At line:1 char:111

    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : DirectoryNotFoundException

The step in my workflow looks like this:

jobs:
  CI:
    runs-on: windows

    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
