        First question is did you extract the ROM files?

        If not... Do that...

        If so then what is the extension (.zip, .exe, ect)

              @Bulmer13 that would be the issue...

              Use 7-zip to extract... A good rule of thumb is to always extract the rom

              Also may want to listen to the admin...

                @herb_fargus Sorry Herb, I'll delete this (assuming I can). For the record, I know you're one of the developers. Great stuff. I figured my issue out. Take care!
