Most games that you download will be compressed using advanced archive processes that aren't built-in to Windows. In order to extract the files for these games after downloading them, you'll need a special extraction program. Two of the most popular include 7-Zip (7-zip.org) and WinRAR (rarlab.com).  7-Zip is a free program that can open most compressed files, including RAR and 7z formats. It is the most recommended program for this process. The trial version of WinRAR will allow you to open most formats forever, but you'll be bugged about registering after the trial period is up. Most games are distributed using BitTorrent, which is a popular method of sharing large files between computers. In order to use BitTorrent, you'll need a client that can load torrent files and connect you to other users. One of the most popular free clients is qBittorrent (qbittorrent.org. If you choose qBittorrent, you won't need to worry about any additional adware. If you choose a different client such as uTorrent, read each installation screen carefully so that you don't install any unwanted software. Downloading games using torrents is one of the easiest ways to get infected by a virus. To help prevent against this, make sure that your have an antivirus program installed, and that it is up to date. You can use Windows Defender, which comes installed with Windows, or a third-party solution such as BitDefender or Kaspersky.  See How to Turn on Windows Defender for instructions on enabling it. For instructions on installing a different antivirus program, see How to Install an Antivirus. You should only have one antivirus program installed at a time. Right-click on your antivirus's icon in the system tray and select "Update" to check for and download any available updates. Many games come in ISO format, which is a copy of a disc. To use the ISO file, you'll need to either burn it to a disk, or mount it in a virtual drive. If you plan on installing a lot of different games, using a virtual drive can save you a lot of money on blank DVDs.  One of the most popular options is WinCDEmu, a free and open source program. Windows 8 and later includes the ability to mount ISO files without the need of additional software.
