Thanks for the answer TheCyberDruid!

Your input would've probably worked indeed, but I can confirm mine did the trick

Here's a quick tutorial for people that may have the same issue:

- Download Total Commander : http://www.ghisler.com/ and install it
- Download TC ADF Plugin : http://ghisler.fileburst.com/plugins/amigadx.zip and extract it anywhere, subfolder of TC is fine
- Launch TC, open Configuration menu -> Options, click the Packer menu entry, click Configure Packer extension WCX's.

All files with extension : type 'hdf'
Then click "New Type" and browse to the plugin's .WCX file. Press ok.
You can repeat this operation with extension 'adf' if you plan to read adf files with TC as well.

- Go the the folder where your kickstarts are stored, make a copy and rename the A500 and A4000 kickstarts according to this table I found on the WHDLoad officiel page, follow the link:

http://www.whdload.de/docs/en/need.html

Don't forget to remove the .rom extension. The files will be considered as having a .A500 and .A4000 extensions under windows, but we don't care.

- In TC, open your Workbench31.hdf file (make sure to have closed WinUAE if it's open or you will get an "access denied" error), inside it browse to Devs\Kickstarts folder, drag and drop the two files to that folder + the rom.key file. A "packer options" window will pop up, just leave everything by default and press ok, it works fine.

And voilà, everything's up and running!
