NOOBS download

Thu Aug 21, 2014 7:22 am

I have downloaded the NOOBS.zip file.

Attempting to extract it, I am asked for a password...

...what is it/what have I done wrong?

Thanks

Download again, must be a damaged zip file. I just downloaded Noobs and it opens and extracts fine.

Are you being asked for file protection password from the unzip program OR are you being asked for your Windows administrator password?
Unless specified otherwise my response is based on the latest and fully updated RPiOS Buster w/ Desktop OS.
