Celestia 1.6- Corrupted files

Post #1by Toon Ike » 18.11.2009, 00:07

Every time i go onto the main site, click downloads, and download it, it finishes downloading, but i can't open it. it just says "Setup Files are corrupted. Please obtain a new copy of the program." so, i go back on, download it again, and still-corrupted files. i downloaded it about 5 times all-together, and every time it's the same thing. I have a Windows Vista Laptop/ Can anyone help me please :?: :?:

Are you using a download manager?
What browser are you using?

I would suggest not using a D/L manager, and if that doesn't solve it, try using a different browser as well.

" celestia-win32-1.6.0.exe "

where is it being saved to ? your desktop or tmp or "my documents " "

that's what i'm downloading, so yes. I'm using Google Chrome so it saves in My files-Documents-downloads. i'll try saving it to desktop.

As i said, Google Chrome. I'll see if it's the browser if it doesn't work with the desktop.
