    There's a specific folder format you must use, which is detailed in our FAQ:

    »How do I use someone else's save?
    After downloading a save, you'll either get a plain old data.bin or a zipped file.
    If you have a data.bin, you have to place it in a folder structure on your SD card like so: \private\wii\title\GAME\data.bin (replacing GAME with it's corresponding game code from the game code list).
    If you get a zipped file, it most likely has all of it's folder structure in tact, so all you have to do is extract it to your SD card so it shows up like the above folder structure.
    Once you have the file in place on your SD card, you can then put the SD card in to your Wii and go to your saved game(s) on your SD card (Wii Options > Data Management > Save Data > Wii > SD card tab), select the saved game that you want and select Copy. Keep in mind that if you already have a save on your Wii that you're trying to replace, it wont overwrite it, so you'll have to backup your save, then delete it off your Wii internal memory to be able to transfer the new one on.

    \private\wii\title\RB4E\data.bin

    That right there should literally be your folder structure. This means you're creating 4 different folders.. one inside the other. First create a new folder on your SD card and name it private, then go into your newly created private folder and create a new folder called wii, then inside that one, create title, then inside title, create RB4E, then stick your data.bin in RB4E.

    Make sure you unzip the .zip file you downloaded and extract the data.bin file out of it, then place the data.bin in the RB4E folder that you created on your SD card. Only then will it show up correctly on your Wii.

    You have to find the data.bin file that you downloaded off of WiiSave, then click and drag the data.bin to the RB4E folder. It might ask you to replace the old data.bin file that's already in there. If it does, click yes.

    If you're still confused by these instructions, ask someone you know in real life to help you out and it should be easy.

    lastjedi;

    1. On your SD card, create a new folder. Name it 'private' (no quotes). Then, open up that folder.

    2. Inside that folder, create a new folder and name it 'wii' (again, no quotes). Open up that folder.

    3. Inside that folder, create a new folder and name it 'title' (again, no quotes). Open up that folder.

    4. Inside that folder, create a new folder and this folder needs to be the 4 letter name of the game ('RB4E' without the quotes, in this case). Open up that folder.

    5. Put the .bin file that you downloaded from WiiSave.com into that folder.

    You're done. Now, when you put the SD card into the Wii, it will read the save.

    Leave the file structure on there; from now on, when you download a new save file that you want to have on the Wii, you will only have to start at Step 4, because all the other folders will already have been created.
