Help with mods

That's just it, when I right click on it, it doesn't give me anything like properties to look at. It asks me what I want to open it with, then shows a list of explorer, adobe, paint, an app from the app store, etc. I don't know what to do with it from there. Tried explorer but that didn't seem to do anything with it, then adobe wouldn't work on it... that's when I decided to ask here. I get that I need to have this loaded to do mods from the step by step instructions, but this thing with not being able to get to the setup file has me stopped. Oh, and I have that 7zip file sitting in a documents folder, as per the instructions in the thread I referenced, but that's all I've done with it so far.

Its a compressed file, any decompression software will open it. Winrar, winzip 7zip etc all work. I use winrar myself since the trial version never stops working (had it on "trial" basis for 8 years lol)

Basically just download winrar and install it. Then use it to extract JSGME. You will need this kind of software anyway for the mods themselves as they too are all in compressed formats and need extracting.

Happy Hunting.
