Don't extract it. Put the entire zipped folder in your "mods" directory.

Go into documents > my games > fs17 > then at the top should be the mods folder, you just need to drop the zipped mod in there.

Have a look at the following post for instructions on where to find the right FarmingSimulator2015 folder that contains the mods folder: viewtopic.php?f=874&t=97898

@Guitarman: since he's playing FS15 he won't have an 'fs17' folder anywhere.

@Don_apple, that's a good point! My apologies must have been on auto-pilot. Substitute 15 for 17 and it should still be the same place. Edit: and yeah the folders full name is FarmingSimulator20xx, I meant the fs as an abbreviation but reading it back, that not clear. Sorry for any miscommunication caused
