Thanks for the report! I wonder what is causing the download to fail. I will see if I can reproduce this somehow on my end, or at the very least see if I can get some better exception handling in place for failed downloads so we can get a more helpful error.

You're welcome! I just wanted to add: I tried manually downloading the 64-bit version of protoc 3.14.0 and putting it in the ./Vendor/Protoc folder, but it didn't do anything.

I launched Launchpad as administrator (which I tried before), and for some reason, it worked. My system really is an enigma.
