Hi.

Per Coverity.

Coverity has some alerts about the function *RestoreArchive*,
arguing that there are null variable dereferences.

I haven't done in-depth research to determine if this is correct or not.
However, the code can be simplified to a single check that would silence
notifications and protect against this issue.

patch attached.

best regards,
Ranier Vilela
