→PKGs and RAPs
Depending on how you've obtained your digital games and DLCs, you may have downloaded them through the internet in PKG form, or as a folder with all its contents inside. RPCS3 can install digital items with the "Install .pkg" function, but you can also manually copy game folders to the <code>\dev_hdd0\game</code> folder, where they'd be stored anyways like Sony designed with digital games.
However, non-free digital items require a license (with the extension .RAP) in order to decrypt a few important files before they can be booted. This .RAP file is either in the "<code>\dev_hdd0\home\00000001\exdata" </code> of your PS3 <small>if you're dumping the game yourself</small>, or alongside your download if you're downloading it.
Some scene releases or warez dumps don't include a .RAP file, and instead give you a fix that contains pre-decrypted files that you'd copy to the game's folder. In more rare scenarios, the pre-decrypted files may replace another pkg, so make sure you install all the .pkgs you need to before replacing files.
