On Linux : "7z x Armbian_Debian_buster_desktop.7z"

On Windows : https://www.7-zip.org/download.html

Where did you get it from? The filename should not be: Debian_buster_desktop.7z but its translated to something like this: Armbian_5.98.191020_Bananapipro_Debian_buster_dev_5.3.7_minimal.7z

@John Outrider Gault before this is useable give the command:
apt install p7zip-full

Armbian_5.98_Nanopim4_Debian_buster_default_4.4.192_desktop.7z
Armbian_5.98_Nanopct4_Debian_buster_default_4.4.192_desktop.7z

 

I did not know that all I had to do "7z x filename.7z"
I have never used a 7z file before

And I did not know that the image was 4 files.

 

apt install p7zip-fullt That just installs the program that is already installed therefore unfortunately for me it was not what I was looking for
I was trying to uncompress the download
