Import Ecoinvent 3.3 (ecospold2) database

Question

I have downloaded Ecoinvent 3.3 database directly from Ecoinvent website and the files appear in ecospold2.7z (containing a bulk of datasets). I tried to import the database into openLCA 1.6 but the programme cannot find any source files in my computer`s directory even though I choose "ecospold2" in file category (I`m sure that I chose the right directory). Does anyone have any ideas for this problem, please?

Hello Kong,
welcome! Quick and short answer: you need to use the database from openLCA nexus for openLCA, the one from ecoinvent does not work with openLCA.
Thank you,
Andreas
