      Hello. I have downloaded retropie for Raspberry pi 3. I have extracted it using 7zip. I have formatted my SD card properly as well. However, when I open Win32DiskImager, it won't show the extracted .img file. When I try to open it and mount the file using File Explorer, it says the file is corrupt. I have downloaded the file multiple times to no avail. Any help would be appreciated. I am a beginner and I can't seem to fix this issue, which is seemingly simple.

        @mineer64 sounds like an incompatible SD card.

          @rbaker switched computers and it worked no problem. Weird but oh well. Thanks!
