OPK (Open PacKage) files are archive files that contains emulators, standalone games, applications or utilities along with all their associated resources like icons packed into a single file that does not require installation to be able to run them.

!!! Note

In the current (2.0.0) release of the FunKey-OS, the **OPK** files
are only available for the gmenu2x launcher, and not in RetroFE.

7-Zip can be used to extract OPK files, and Open Package Creator (v1.1.2) is a useful tool if you want to re-package an OPK or customize icons, add additional games and much more.

Connect your FunKey S console to your computer and add OPK files as simply as you would do it with a simple USB memory stick:

Display Action
Connection PC{.lightbox} Connect the FunKey S to your computer using the provided micro USB cable, then open it to turn it on
RetroFE{.lightbox} At the launcher's main screen (example here with gmenu2x), press the key
Mount USB{.lightbox} Press the or keys until you see "MOUNT USB"
Mount USB Are you sure{.lightbox} Press the key twice to confirm
Eject USB{.lightbox} "EJECT USB" is now displayed instead, now go to your host computer and open a File Explorer window
USB Drive{.lightbox} You should see the FunKey S appear as an USB drive on your computer in the File Explorer (example here with Windows 10)
Copy OPK{.lightbox} Drag & drop the OPK file into any 1st-level folder1 in this USB drive on your computer and they will be automatically available on the FunKey S
Eject Drive{.lightbox} Eject cleanly the USB drive from your computer
Eject USB Are you sure{.lightbox} Back on the FunKey S, at the "EJECT USB" menu entry, press the key twice to confirm
Unmount USB{.lightbox} Press the key to return to the launcher screen

Of course, you can remove OPK files from the FunKey S console as you would do with a USB memory stick, too!
