Add OPK Files

OPK (Open PacKage) files are archive files that contains emulators, standalone games, applications or utilities along with all their associated resources like icons packed into a single file that does not require installation to be able to run them.

Note

In the current release of the FunKey OS (DrUm78's version), the OPK files are available both for the GMenu2X and RetroFE launchers. See documentation here.

7-Zip can be used to extract OPK files, and Open Package Creator is a useful tool if you want to re-package an OPK or customize icons, add additional games and much more.

Connect your FunKey S console to your computer and add OPK files as simply as you would do it with a simple USB memory stick:
