Mainly got into this because I wanted to try out the new isle of man tt sim. went to www.yasdl.com and found it. Installed all of the parts but however I attempt to open them (winrar, then extracting the files (winrar, then using ultraiso, then using the setup.exe within, it always says that it isnt a Freearc archive/it's corrupt) am I missing something major? I don't really understand how to use torrents either. Apologies

Use this website, it's far better : https://fitgirl-repacks.site/

Also, get qBittorrent if you haven't yet. It is a torrent client, so if helps you download torrents. Imagine torrents like little files that lead to other files. If you download a torrent and double click it, it will open up on the client. Should you need any help please just ask!

So you downloaded a multi-part .rar archive?

Typically you'll want to open the first part, or the part that doesn't have a number associated with it, and extract the contents to a folder.

You can't run the executable from within the archive, you have to extract the data first.

Does the extraction complete successfully?

yep, it's working now, thank you
