Strange post for an introduction. But anyway, to answer, I can only see your xci.rar files being fake, or you didn't download them properly if your computer doesn't recognize the rar files.

SXOS is dead and not the best option now if you're inclined to play the latest games. Install the latest atmosphere instead and update to the latest firmware. I did, and I don't regret it. Too bad for XCI USB loading, but that's the way it goes.

do i need special version of winrar software to exract the xci.rar? ...is it possible maybe they zip it in some software rar?..

Use 7zip to extract. And sxos is old and dead, use atmosphere and fw 12.1.0.

You can use both SX and atmosphere. You need an EmuNAND at the proper FW for SX. Another for atmo. I have one SD card that setup with both. One SD card with only atmosphere. And one SD card only with SX OS. 99% of games out there still work with SX OS. And I love my big ass freaking hard drive. You can even have multiple hidden partition EmuNAND on same SD.. if you want.

Piracy is not endorsed. And you shouldn't use SX anymore or if you needed ask for support where you but it. You pay for it.

Congratulations! I didnt know you were a moderator.

OP. Piracy talk gets you banned. And SXOS talk will get you lynched. Dont listen to them. You can run Atmosphere AND SX if you want. SX is no longer on development and won't be updated. You'll have to switch to atmosphere for new games. You can easily setup a dual boot. Or just use separate SD cards. Tons of tutorials. Oh. Don't worry about the mini mods. They think they are right for treating people so wrong.

And your xci.rars are probably bunk or a virus...

7zip said "No archive found." Is there another way?
