Step 4: Open the “Game Menu” and select the option “Install Package Files” and then select “manager.pkg”.

This will install the “Backup Manager” application that does all future tasks.

Inside the “Game Menu” you will see a list of games you have backed up. Select the game, and run it without having the disc in the console’s drive.
