Cannot open file as archive?

Post by FortyCalCarter »

I've been trying to extract the file from the download but every time I do it tells me I cannot open file as archive.

Does anyone know what this means? Some help would be most welcome because i am not very good with this kind of stuff.

I'm guessing you are trying to extract the .torrent file (is it like 26kB or something?)

You need to use a bittorrent client to download the .ISO file (completely) and you can then extract that one

I see, where can I download a bit torrent client? Or are you talking about 7zip which I have and I also have winrar. Thank you for your reply.

The bit torrent client i prefer is qBittorrent official website
No ads, no spyware, no garbage, just a clean well functioning torrent client.
