Help me please mobile board imaging.

[Rworthy]

Hi all, I'm a newbie, my name is Richard, I'm from Lancashire in England (UK) I'm struggling with how to view a zip file, I've extracted it but I don't know how to view it (iphone6s zip) I'm hoping to be able to view the board in detail, can anyone help me please, what do i need to do?

Hope this finds its way to the knowing hehe,

Thanks in advance,

Richard.

What is file extension to the extracted file?

Perhaps .brd?

Then it is a board view files. You will need to download and install the free boardviewer program.

Google for it.

Hi, thank you so much for your help, the problem is not that when I extract the file it shows like a Web browser icon, if I use board view it says it doesn't recognise the file, if I click on the Web icon type thing it just pops up with a Web window very briefly then disappears, I got a couple of different files from this link on badcaps just to see if one was not working..

Please advise if you know what I'm doing wrong if you are able to please.
Thanks again.
