I went to install the clean Installer, but when I go to run it it says the file is corrupt. Is there anyway I can get a good file?

Re-download the file. This happens once in a while.

Did you redownload or just unzip/unrar?

You need to redownload from the original site. Sometimes, especially during high internet traffic times, it can take several tries before the file comes all the way thru correctly.

If it is a download that has been available for some time, and no one has reported any problems in the comments, then it is definitely a transmission problem.

If it is a very new download asset, then it is possible (but not probable) that the original file is corrupt.

I got the older version to download. the new version will not save or unzip, keeps saying possible disk failure or corrupt file.

To me it sounds like you might not have enough room on your disc for it. Try cleaning out all your caches and temporary internet files and see if that helps. I am no means a computer geek, but I do know that does help sometimes.

Just tried again and it came through at 4 am. Thanks for all your help. It is now stored on my F drive.

I redownloaded several times as well and it did not work - so I redownloaded and renamed the file by adding an "a" on the end and it worked.
