    Hi ,

    I am Ivan, I will help you with this.

    You can open it using the 7-zip application, but it does not work for all PKGs.

    Remember that the pkg format is used for macOS, iOS, PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation 4 systems.

    You cannot open it using Windows.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi ,

    Well, some Pkgs can be opened using 7-zip, but it is very rare to be able to open them.

    In the case of a MAC or Sony console installation file,

    You will only be able to open it on these specific systems.

    Hope this helps.
