Technically the behavior is working as designed and the behavior is as expected and not really even a bug. When a file is scanned with the *.zip_ extension its recognized as a file. After the file is moved to place it is renamed with the proper .zip extension. Internally the file type state in the cache is now incorrect as the file is actually a zip, so when another scan occurs RV hashes the contents of the zip since its now recognized as an archive instead of a file.
The needed "fix" for this is archives as files support. Which is one of the big feature requests.
This has been left here reported as a bug, as a place holder to explain this unexpected behavior.

Example: A dat file contains zips as files, so you rename all your zips to *.zip_ to prevent RV from scanning the contents. After fixing the zips have the proper extension in the proper place. However, now if you scan that directory the zip contents will be hashed, which is unwanted.
