Simple: don’t upload the zip file. It likely gets deleted because it’s over the 10 MB file size limit.

Instead, extract the zip file on your own computer and upload the extracted files directly. Because even if you would be able to upload the zip file, you wouldn’t have any way to extract it on the server.
