8,223 PointsYou need to unzip the file before you can drag and drop the files. I assume that you have Windows, in which case, I use this piece of software: http://download.cnet.com/7-Zip/3000-2250_4-10045185.html. You will extract your files, and they will look and be named the exact same thing. However, this time, you can drag the new extracted files into your workspace.

15,308 Pointswhen you download the files it will go to the download folder. select the file you want, then you should see up at the very top of the page a tag that says compressed folder tools. then under that there should be a bottom over to the right that says extract all. when clicked the cpu will ask to give it a path just hit ok or give it a path you want then select that file and pull it in to you work space. hop e that helps if not i will try to explain it better.
