How to Download and Extract Digital Files

After you've downloaded the .zip file from The Scrapbook School website...

Windows
 You can open a ZIP file with the built-in Windows Compressed Folder. To open a ZIP file using this feature:
  • Find the ZIP file you downloaded from The Scrapbook School. 
  • Right-click on the ZIP file and select “Extract All…” 
  • Once you choose “Extract All,” you will get a new pop-up menu. 
  • In the new pop-up menu, click “Browse” and choose your destination. 
  •  Once you’ve selected a destination folder, click “OK.” Note: Check “Show extracted files when complete” to find the unzipped files immediately. 
  • Click “Extract” in the pop-up menu to open the files. 
  •  Once the extraction is complete, a window displays all the files from the ZIP folder. 

Mac
  •  Locate the ZIP file you want to open. If you need help finding where you stored the ZIP file after downloading it, check the Downloads folder.
  • Double-click the ZIP file. This will automatically begin the file extraction.
  • When the extraction is complete, a window will pop up to display the extracted files. If no window opens after the extraction is complete, locate the folder using your computer’s Search function.
