Downloaded the msi file for windows and double clicked but nothing happens!! when trying to use in PixInsight it asks for a path to the exe file but since it did not install there is none .. is there a work-around or some other method to download the file(s) so it will install? Thanks

Hi,

I have not experienced this behavior by myself but heard from others. Did you download this file via the Microsoft Edge browser? I believe Edge (+Windows) has a feature to block executing downloaded binaries that are unknown to Microsoft and one has to explicitly allow the execution after the download has finished. Please double check that. Another option could be to try another browser like Firefox.

Best regards David
