You just opened a file how come it does not work? How did you normally use the TF2 mods?

chose another app. Then it should give you an option check box to set as default.

once you click on choose another app, you will see the option to "always open with"

When in doubt, re-format.

I said "always open with" the checkbox you see is "always use this app..."

c'mon man, I think you can figure that one out on your own.....

When in doubt, re-format.

Unless the problem is that you don't know what application to use for opening .rar files, and that's a different topic altogether. I prefer 7zip myself.

When in doubt, re-format.

Download and install WinRar if you don't have it. Then follow those same steps above.

lol, you gotta choose the app you want to use, then hit "always..."

I'm assuming you are just setting notepad everytime. download 7zip, its the bestest. WinRAR is 'gabbage

When in doubt, re-format.
