Please try to write full, clear sentences.

You do not need a .zip file to access the game or lobby.
Here is the installer for the FAF-lobby: http://users.edpnet.be/zepilot/FAForeverLobby-0.10.109.msi

If for any reason your .zip Program opens when you execute this file, you can right click it and choose "Install".
(In that case your Windows file associations are messed up. I'd consult the Internet on how to fix this if I were you.)

If you want to install a mod, you can do it from the mod vault in the lobby.

Right click the link to the installer -> click "save as...", click ok, and let it download.
Then go to the file and right click it, then choose "Install".

If that does not work, your Windows is not working correctly.

Did you download the file I linked to?
Download this: http://users.edpnet.be/zepilot/FAForeverLobby-0.10.109.msi

Then right click on that file, and choose "Install".

If that does not work, please post a screenshot of the downloaded file and the right click menu.

I guess this is the anti-spam function of the forum.
Seperate the link at a few places and post as text.

Re: instaliation  Topic is solved

I see the problem now.
Your WinRAR has taken over the .msi file extension. That is generally not a good thing, as it can break a lot of things.

There are a few possible solutions:
1) Look in the options for WinRAR, if you can set/reset/unset the file associations
2) Uninstall WinRAR, and if you reinstall, don't select to set it to all file extensions
3) A quick search brought me to this website: How to Restore Default File Extension Type Associations in Windows 8 and 8.1

Good luck!
