Hello

I have a slight problem. When I download any SimSig files it goes onto the downloads on my documents but when im trying to install it from there but nothing happens.

Can you be more specific? Are you trying to install a Sim or install a Timetable or sound file?

If you are trying to install SimSig so you can play, you'll need to install 2 things. First, the system files, and then the actual sims you want to play which are available separately. When the system files are installed, you will not give any indication that they are there. There are no shortcuts or desktop icons. When you install a sim, you will then get the appropriate shortcut to run that particular sim and off you go.

If you are downloading a timetable or a sound file then they don't have an installer and just need to be copied to the appropriate folder.

Since Win 7 came out the default download option for windows has been User/Documents/Downloads unless you change it manually to a different destination folder. It shouldn't affect installation of SimSig

Make sure you are not using Windows RT, in which SimSig cannot run on.
