Once you have downloaded the closeout file, navigate to the file on your desktop. It should read Type - Compressed (zipped) Folder:

Next, you will need to extract the contents of the file. Right-click the document, and select Extract All:

On the next screen, select the location for the newly extracted file. In this case, we leave the suggested option and extract it in the current folder: 

Click Extract and the file will be pulled into a folder with the same name with Type - File Folder:

You can now navigate to that folder and view its contents. The Table of Contents is a fully hyperlinked file that allows you to navigate the full closeout package and open respective files. You can view your closeout package with any PDF viewer. For best results, we recommend Adobe Acrobat Reader.

For Windows Users: You will need to extract the zip file that is downloaded. The best way to do this is to use the Windows-provided Extract All tool (as mentioned in this article), or download free and open-source software 7zip: https://www.7-zip.org

For Mac Users: You do not need to explicitly extract the compressed file. You can double-click the zip file to extract and use the contents.

Note: 01 Table of Contents.pdf can be renamed, but other folders and files cannot be renamed. The exact structure of this folder must be maintained to ensure the links in the cover sheet continue to work.
