Download Issues - souleaterevans626 - 01-11-2021
Hi, all. I'm trying to download the RPCS3 files for Windows, but I can't seem to find them. The download button on the website downloads a single 7Z file that only opens through Notepad and is obviously not the emulator. I went to Github and found the RPCS3 repository because I figured the site had the wrong link. I tried downloading it from there and this time it was a ZIP file, but it seemed to have everything except the actual emulator. The exe file wasn't in there. I searched my whole drive for it just to be sure. Am I doing something wrong? I'm so new to this. I feel like it's not that complicated to click a button or download a zip file, though. Thanks in advance to anyone who responds

7z file will only open with Notepad if you define that file association, which makes no sense since it's compressed data and Notepad is not for that.
You need to set it to open with 7-Zip.

You need to install the software 7zip to be able to extract it.
