Hi Sivan, It depends on which device you are using, you can try right-clicking the file and looking for the 'unzip' option. Some devices even let you just double-click it. If those two don't work, try Googling 'unzip on (device)'. I hope that works! 2 More Answers

This is labeled "Other 3D" when there's no 3D at all? it's 2D pictures and a 2D PDF. Incredibly misleading.
