Extracting files from an archive

=How to Dearchive an archive file= If you have just downloaded an install or large upgrade file from the SMF Downloads page, you want to get the files out of it so you can use it. The .zip file is probably going to be easy to use on any desktop computer you are using. On a PC, simply right-click on the .zip file, and choose "extract all" from the pop-up menu. You will wind up with a new folder with the same name as the .zip file you began with, full of all the files that were just extracted from the .zip file.

If you are using another type of desktop computer, find out which unzip or archive manager program you have installed.
