Umberto,

I've run check disk to determine hard drive health and system file checker to check for erroneous files. I've also disabled Windows Defender AND McAfee entirely and still getting the same error.

You may be able to send me a separate link to download gsx_p3d4_setup2-1.bin to see if this is the culprit since the hash didn't match in the checksum.If this is one of the first files that install into the system, this file could be the culprit, which I don't believe the issue is on my system but possibly the framework. Basically, if it is not on your servers, it could be somewhere in the transfer process. Between both Win 7 and Win10 systems I had, I've always had problems downloading updates from the FSDT live update or your servers here in Korea. Every update I've done with GSX always resulted in me having to uninstall and reinstall the program.

I tried it now to download it manually, and it returns the correct file with the correct MD5 hash:

Umberto,

Tried it again, it's still pulling from: 119f3af6643d4401838f02ade30f52c3. I don't know where and what this is. The culprit seems to be either the file or possibly somewhere in the link. McAfee was off, the cache was cleared when I tried to download it.

Umberto,

I tried downloading the bin file again on my external hard drive and it returned: d1121e1103becd49214b6b774ab97578

I don't think its my hard drive. Its somewhere in the transmission process.

It's clearly something happening on your system. You are still the only one reporting this. Have you tried restarting the modem/router ?

[chevy83]

Restarting did not work. You sure this isn't the installer?

I am still GSX-less and need resolution ASAP. It is not my system that is causing this. I very certain of this.

I think I already proven this many times, by comparing the hashes which I just downloaded, against the ones which are download on your system and your system only.

Yes, it's your system, that's for sure, since nobody else has reported this, and many thousands of users have downloaded the same installer without any problems.

Try downloading with a VPN:

Umberto,

The VPN method worked! It downloaded and installed just fine.

I knew the issue wasn't my system but the connection somewhere. This may have explained what happened with my FS2Crew file 2 years ago when I was on a different system at another apartment.

Thanks for the assistance and for being patient!

I am having this exact same issue now. Tried a different laptop (with VPN) and those files were corrupted, too.

May I please have the direct linking off the server for the 6 files?

PS: I keep retrying and every time the corruption is at a different percentage of install completion.
