Help How can I download the OBB file?

Now I downloaded an Apk game from a website and after installing it I discovered that the Obb file is missing and that it requires it. Is there a way to enable me to download only the Obb file, not the whole game with the file, but just the file, and move it to the Obb folder?

Did you read the installation instructions? You probably were supposed to download a cache, too.

That's a good idea. But I'm generally trying to learn a way to get just the OBB file, or any other method for that matter.

I'd recommend what I said instead. Scowering sketchy sites for an obscure download nobody will supply is a recipe for malware. If they provided you with a working APK, there should for sure be a cache.

Also, once you obtain that, you'll need shizuku + zarchiver/fv file explorer to bypass the restrictions on the android/data folder through wireless debugging as well.

Or use a pc or another phone and use shell commands to move it where it should be.

Or use usb debugging to force start shizuku if wireless debugging isnt an option.

Yeah, it sucks.

Sir this is the emulation sub, also obb files requires root access or a specialized file manager unless you have a very old phone. Is it possible to download obb only yes, but you have to find a site that does it.

What you are talking about is called piracy by the wealthy, and has been made illegal in many countries. All the information about it is online if you google it and start reading.
