    Default Games Don't show up on my R4 Card

    when I boot up my ds R4 card the games I just put on it don't show up. I've noticed that the file type is 7Z, that may be the problem but I have no clue on how to fix it

    You will need to install 7-zip. Then right click on your game and extract it. Copy that file to your R4 card.

    What do you mean by extract, all that comes up is share with, restore previous versions,send to > compressed zip folder, cut, copy, create shortcut, delete, rename and properties (i have 7-zip installed)

    You need to enable context submenus then.

    Start 7zip. Click on Tools -> Options -> click the 7zip tab at the top and check the first 3 boxes. You can also setup what options show up in the context menu etc as well.

    That sounds odd, I've always seen 7zip fully integrated by default after installed
    Win10 doesn't cause that does it?

    Spoiler warning:

    No idea. Always installed for me that way too. I use Win7 though. Could be an Admin privilege thingy too maybe??? I dunno, either way it just takes a sec to enable it.
