I cant open sandbox!! Please HELP!

Post by HAHAHAHA »

Okay i cant open sandbox (even the older versions) because it keeps saying that it wasnt a supported file type. I think it has to do with the software that i chose to open it with. So, if you are a Mac user, can you tell me what you select to open it with? right now i am trying to open it with Adobe Reader.

Heres the error:
Adobe Reader could not open 'CLICK_ME_TO_START.bat' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
