Re: How to install packages
HI and welcome,
instead of installing packages manually, which is error-prone and a bad workaround, we should get your package manager to work.
What error messages are you receiving.

The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Re: How to install packages
Welcome to the forum!
Please provide information about your operating system (Windows? Linux? Mac?) and the TeX version (MiKTeX? TeX Live? Linux version of TeX Live?). And of course we need to know the error message, as Johannes said. Also I suggest to use the package manager, because there are dependencies, especially between l3 packages and others (siunitx for example) and l3 is developing fast. Within a TeX version and with it's package manager, versions should be consistent so that packages would work together.
