Download a winrar http://www.rarlab.com/rar/wrar351.exe
then simply install, (next, next, next and so on)
then right click on a file, and do either extract files/ok or extract here.
 
hey guys thanks a lot...

i downloaded both the programs and they both worked well

No use using both. Keep the one you like and uninstall the other. :)

Yeah i will, i just wanted to see which one was a better one...i have another question...Does anyone know which program would open a .l6t file?

thanks
 
As far as I am concerned there is no such extension as .l6t. What did you take this file from?
And what is it anyway?

I presume that Line 6 provided some kind of computer software that downloads these kinds of patch files.

The POD is pretty cool, btw.

I meant to say thanks for taking the timeto help me! yeah there is a software on the official POD site that can be used to open these files, but they are only useful if you have a POD, I don't i have the GT8 :cool:

Yeah there is a special software that is designed by POD company to help to transfer these files from the POD to the computer and vice versa through midi input and output...Trust me chroot i have the Gt8 and its way better than the POD...i.e. in my opinion:smile:
