    The file you download is a zipped archive. Have you extracted the files from it yet? You will need to right-click the file and select one of the extract options (extract the files to their own folder).

    I recommend 7zip if you need an archive extraction program - http://www.7-zip.org/

    On bittorrent there isnt a thing called extracted file , all i can is open and open containing file. But i know once you download useing bittorrent , they place a folder in your "my documents" called "downloads" and inside there is the torrent you download.
    here what inside the torrent

    you don't extract from within the torrent program. Go to the download folder, right-click "Perfect World International.zip" and extract it to it's own folder. Run the Install program from that folder.

    One you're sure the game is working correctly, you can delete the zip file and the files you extracted from it. That's an extra 5 Gb or so you can get back quite easily.

    Or if you can, back them up to a DVD-R so you don't have to re-download if something does happen to go wrong. ;)
