That doesn't sound like the standard behaviour!
I tried
FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(@"c:\temp\program.zip");
fi.MoveTo(@"c:\temp\program.x86.zip");
It doesn't have any effect on the contents of the zip file.
Sounds like something has gone a little wrong with your compression...
all streams etc closed correctly?
