Why download twice? That's what the sha files are for. I've grabbed it to check and I get a file of 33,210,841 bytes. If you don't know how to check the hash of a file, take a look at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/d92a713f-d793-7bd8-b0a4-4db811e29559 > When I double-click, or right-click and Open, there is a brief flash > of hour-glass then nothing happens.

I've just tried the x64 version on a VirtualBox installation of W10 and I get some command windows open which then disappear to leave me with the UAC window. Once that's gone it installs without a problem. Try running the installer from within a command window to see if that throws up any error messages. Hope that helps. _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer -- __ __| |_ __ __ .------------------------------------------------. / _/ _` \ V V / | mailto:cdw_pcm...@the-walker-household.co.uk | \__\__,_|\_/\_/ |________________________________________________| _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
