Plex Plugins question
Hi, I have been looking at you tube to download some links for PLEX Plugins and I found some, see below; - problem I'm having is that I can not un-zip these folders, I don't know if they are specific to Apple or if I am missing the proper software to unzip them. This is a new Samsung Notebook BR8GSMT using Windows 10. If someone is familiar with this, please let me know.

Win 10 comes with unzip utility but there might be chance that the built-in tool will not work.
7zip is open source zip and unzip utility and it is very likely that the plugin files are zipped with 7zip.

One last question, How do I unzip a compress folder? Do I first open 7Zip and look for the folder or does it automatically take over when I double click the folder?

after you have installed 7zip, when you right click a zip file, there is an option to extract to a folder.

One last thing, how do I use 7zip. If I right click the folder and select 7-Zip, I can Open archive, Extract file, etc. My understanding is that once the file is open, it will produce a folder with a . Bundle extension and if you remove the .Bundle from the name, it turns into an icon which you then put in the Plex Plugins folder. I tried that on one and the folder did not turn into an icon. It remain a folder which is now named "Unsupported Appstore.
