    Hi, I'm using a mac and I got some emulators. They can't run the file that I downloaded from this site, and my mac won't open it. It's a .7z file. What do I do?

    stuffit expander should be able to open .7z files. It is an archive format like .rar

    I just tried that. It said

    The file "legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time.7z" does not appear to be compressed or encoded. It is advised that you obtain further information about the contents of this file from the sender or provider of this file.
    It will help to know what program created the file and what operating system(s) this file can be used on.
