If you’ve downloaded one of my products and unzipped the file on your computer, you may notice an extra folder called __MACOSX.

👉 If you’re on Windows, you should ignore this folder.

Here’s why:

  • When a ZIP file is created on a Mac, the system automatically adds this __MACOSX folder.

  • Inside it, you’ll find “shadow” versions of the real files, usually starting with ._ characters.

  • These are just zip resource files that Macs create during the zipping process.

  • On Windows, they won’t work and can cause confusion if you try to install them.

✅ The files you need are always located in the main folder of the zip, NOT inside the __MACOSX folder.

So, if you’re on a PC and see __MACOSX, simply ignore it or even delete it, and use the main files instead.

That’s it! Quick, easy, and problem solved.
