have you tried using winzip or winrar?
compressed files usually don't work with microsoft word

Osu skin are meant to be used in osu, so ofc it won't work at MS office

or i'm the one wrong, i though you wanna use it on MS office (bolded) :P

edit: just realized you wan't the font, simply extract the archive with WinRAR/WinZIP. but AFAIK the font are images files

hmm.... i don't really get the problem here... so basically, you can't open a zip archive...? or is it an osk file...?

1. you download winrar
2. you place the Folder in the rar, in your skins folder
3. ?
4. wat? You're done...

You don't need to unzip them, osu will do it for you.

I think the problem is not that he don't know how to. What I understand is that he messed up with files and instead of being launched by winrar/osu! they are opened by ms office. (probably he also did the same with browser setting to this type of files).

Can't he simply save the file regularly and choose the default program as winrar?

well i was watching an anime called 07-ghost and i saw a group in fb said that there's already a zaiphon font(the words they used in the anime)
when i downloaded it in mediafire it asked me what program will i use to open that file. so of course i picked microsoft word because i will use that font for that program and now whenever i download something from mediafire it always open in microsoft word

hmmm... Let's see... So that means that you are using mozilla, and the font you downloaded was in a zip archive, right? Then it asked you what to do with the zip, and you chose "open with...", and you picked microsoft office, but now you can't open it normally. This means you left the checkbox "Do this to all files of this type from now on." checked.
So if this is the case, your problem has nothing to do with mediafire nor osu! skins. You basically won't be able to open downloaded zip archives.
Here's how you could solve that^. Just download the skin, close ms office if it prompts you about it, hit Ctrl+J in your browser (it opens up your downloads), find the skin you downloaded, and double click on it to open it normally.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you tried doing that but still opens up with ms, locate the file you downloaded in windows explorer, right click on it, choose "Open With..." then "Choose Default Program...". A window should pop up and ask you what program to use when opening it. Choose WinRAR or 7zip or whatever program you use for opening zip files. Make sure the checkbox is checked then press OK.

well, you could use http://puu.sh/ for uploading and use BBCode to link it here. Basically you need to upload your screenshot somewhere and enclose the link in [img] tags on your post.


If you're still having a problem and you can't explain it well, pwede mo naman sabihin sa tagalog eh. ;3

From what I deciphered it sounds like he's trying to install a text font. (for example: Tahoma)

Usually you can extract the zip and rar files, then you can right click the font file(s) and select "install" and you will be able to choose it in word.
Note that you can't rip fonts from osu! skins, every bit of text that appears in any osu! skin is an image.

My osk file wont download my skin
JustABeginner
Hmm? You mean you can't export your skin to .osk file?
If so, go to settings with your current skin and find "export as .osk file".

I'm not so sure what are you trying to say here...
And please elaborate in a new thread.
