How To Install Games On Ti-84 Plus Ce
From here, you need to connect your TI-84 Plus CE to your computer using the charging cable. Your calculator should then pop up in the Connected Calculators section and in the main window you should see a list of all the files stored on your TI-84.
Go to the folder where you downloaded and extracted your game, select all of the files you extracted, and then drag and drop those files right into TI Connect CE.
When you do this you’ll get a Send to Calculators prompt. Click Send and, if the software asks you too, click Replace to replace any files already stored on the calculator.
The game is now on your calculator, and to play it, you just need to run the correct file.
Grab your trusty TI-84 Plus CE and press the [prgm] button, then select the game you want to play by pressing enter.
To launch the game on your calculator, press enter again.
That’s it! You should now see the game load up on your calculator and ready to play. You’ve successfully downloaded and installed games onto your TI-84 Plus CE, and now the world is your oyster!
