I Have Downloaded The File But It's Not A zip/rar File: If you have downloaded a file and it is just a plain White file that does not look like a typical compressed file (zip/rar), what you will need to do is:
1: Click on the Start Button
2. Open My Computer (On Vista Or 7 This will just be Computer)
3. You will see a Menu Bar at the top, click Tools then click Folder Options. (On Vista and 7 you will first need to press the ALT button on your keyboard to see the hidden menu bar)
4. Click on the View Tab
5. Find the check box for "Hide extensions of known file types" and un-check it
6. Now find the downloaded file which does not appear to be a compressed (zip/rar) File
7. Right click on the downloaded file and click Rename
8. At the end of the file name add (.zip Or .rar) if you are not sure which one to add go back to the download page and you will see the file name and it will end with either (.zip or .rar). Example you downloaded a file called "MyGame" which does not appear to be a compress file, when you right click and Rename the File you should not end up with a file name of "MyGame.zip"
9. You will be prompted by Windows that you are trying to change the File Extension, Click OK and accept.
I Cannot Extract The File, I Get An Error Of Archive May Be Corrupted Or Path And File Name Exceeds Limit: If you are using WinRar when you right click to extract the file, choose the "Extract Here" option instead, if you are using WinZip choose the "Extract To Here" Option instead.
Also try to place the file on your desktop when extracting to minimize the file path name length. If this does not work then when downloading the file choose to Open the file instead of Saving it, when choosing this option you will need to browse to find the WinZip or WinRar .exe file and the default program to open these types of Files with.
