For PC users, you will need to right click on the .zip file and choose “extract” all.
After the zip file is unzipped, your edited files will be organized into folders per service: Color Correction, Deluxe Edits, Premium Edits, Retouching, Signature Edits, Album Design, etc.

We recommend deleting the zip file and keeping 2 copies of your completed files between 2 separate hard drives.
