hi, i havent used this site in a while to download. i use to use sims2pack to download but that no longer works. when i try to download using a zip file i get problems. i can download the file with no problem but when i try to install the file, i am unable to do so. i tried using Winrar and would get "windows doesnt reconise the program you using" and would get options to either choose online or on the pc what program i using. when i click on winrar i then get another error message. can anyone help me?

Everything on TSR is compressed in ZIP files, therefore you should be able to open them in Windows without the need for any other software like WinRAR. It sounds like something has gone wrong with your installation of WinRAR, I'd suggest completely uninstalling it and then reinstalling it.

Also, when you reinstall, perhaps you might want to uncheck the option for WinRAR to handle .ZIP files. It's completely up to you, but WIndows by itself should be able to handle .ZIP files. I'd leave WinRAR to handle .RAR files - or the other compressed extensions that Windows can't handle. :)
