If you are a Windows user, you should have a built-in zip utility. Just unzip the file and copy it to where your addons are located in your WoW folder.

Carbonite <----- GitHub main module (Maps ONLY) download link. The other modules are also available on GitHub.
Carbonite-CLASSIC<----- GitHub link to Carbonite Classic. Thanks to ircdirk for this!

Better use Twitch/Curse app and select Alpha updates under Carbonite and its modules.

Thanks for posting.

Yes, I have W10 and know how to unzip ... my question was relative to "do I just leave those existing folders in there?" And ... Do I unzip the whole folder I downloaded ... or just the contents into one of the existing folders ... or separate from those folders?

I have Twitch ... Did not see an Alpha selection.

Problem is my Quest module only works for some things ... sometimes not at all ... map & minimap issues, too.

I think I saw a thread somewhere here that listed conflicting addons ... I will check that out and/or just start disabling other addons (even though night b4 last eve4rything worked fine.

Got everything working (not sure how) ... only annoying thing is what looks like a magnifying glass over part of the minimap & map. I'm sure it's a setting somewhere ... anyone know where?

TIA

Atlas addons do not mesh w/Carbonite ... removed them and I'm fine now. Hope that helps anyone else having issues.
