My files came with my Samsung tablet. Thats what I use.

In the download folder on your device you will have a zip file.

Using your file manager, choose it. If there isn't a menu selection to extract it, you will have to download a file manager that can from the play store. File Viewer can extract zip files.

In the extracted folder or in the download folder (they should always be in a folder, sometimes they are not), will be the json file and most usually images. If not in a separate folder, create one and copy those images and the json file there.

Sometimes the plugin is nested in several empty folders. If so, use the folder where the plugin is.

Copy this folder to the directory Theotown/Plugins.

That should be it! :)

Download and copy to your plugins folder.

If it is a .zip file, you may unzip the folder if you wish before copying, but it is unnecessary.

. plugin files should just be copied to the plugins folder.

It's not possible, but if you didn't delete your original json, you should be able to fix the error and encrypt the plugin again.
