Q3: Does the source you want to add run properly?

If you’ve ensured that you enter the URL correctly and the network connection is great, time to check if the source you added runs properly.

Follow to check the status the source you want to add:

  1. Enter the source in your browser and pressEnter .
  2. If the source runs properly, you would see a pagecontaining a zip file .
