How Do I Handle Module Zip Files? and Which Files Do I Upload to the Server?

When you unzip a module on your local computer, most of the time an extra folder is created. If you upload that folder to the modules directory you would get a "Module Files Not Found" error. Also sometimes developers add extra directories to the module before zipping the file.

In this short flash Tutorial an example module is unzipped and the proper folder is selected for upload to the server.
