Hello again,

Thank you for patiently waiting! We were able to import the footprint successfully. May we ask if you can provide us with the version of your Kicad? If you are using the latest version, feel free to follow this guide below:

https://support.snapeda.com/en/articles/5995733-how-to-import-into-kicad-v6-and-later

Also, If you are importing the footprint, you need to unzip the file first and note that in the process, you only need to select the folder where the kicad_mod is showing, not the actual file itself.

If you need more assistance, please let us know!

Kind regards,
Ron
