Connect to your PC via Active Synch

Files are downloaded to your Desktop. UnRAR or UnZip those files into
a folder and if there is an .exe file, run it on your pc and it will
install through active synch

If it has or is a cab file, drag that to your storage card, use file
explorer to open it and it will install.

Most progs have a readme file zipped in with the .exe file. Read
them.
