Please keep the help list cc'd, and please don't top-post

"symbolic-win-py-bundle-2.6.0.zip", have unzipped it and saved to the folder in Octave to the other packages. -

Ok, the 'does not exist' means it cannot see the file. Usually that means octave's current working directory and where you saved the file are different. You need to change octave's working directory to the place you saved the file, or move the file to octaves working directory.

You can do this by the command line or by the file/folder tree in the upper left of the octave graphical interface. Typing pwd will print the working directory, and CD will change directory. ls or dir will show the contents of the working directory. If you're using the folder tree, just navigate to the folder where you saved the file.  When you're there you should see the file listed in the folder tree window. Then try the pkg install again
