If you have more than one person’s data in your account, be sure to change to the proper profile before clicking the Download Data button.

You need to SAVE the .zip/.rar file to your Desktop (so that it can be easily accessed and thereafter uploaded to the website).
Our server only grants zipped files to be used – as that is 23andme.com’s default mechanism of creating a file out of one’s DNA.
6. Uploading Your Genome (Windows)
You will be taken to the order reports page where you’ll be able to upload your already zipped genome file which you previously saved to your desktop.
