Download Never Finishes
I tried to download the free version from Shrapnel and the download did start, but stopped near the end and got never completed. I tried a couple times, always same result. I have Windows 10, normally .zip files download fine, no problem. Any ideas?

Re: Download Never Finishes
Just dowloaded the free game as a test - it worked fine.
Give it another try.

Alternatively, try using a different browser; many of these problems are browser-based.

Re: Download Never Finishes
The browser may indeed be the main issue but it may be your anti-virus

Microsoft Edge? I think it´s a pretty common browser.
Frankly, I wouldn´t even know how to change it.

Very possible. But it would normally ask me if I want to proceed and if I trust the source bla bla bla.
But in this case it just downloads for ever as if going into a loop once the download is 99% complete...

Edge......the death of browsing.
Though lately, Firefox has disappointed in terms of preformance. I'd recommend trying different browsers. Chrome, despite some issues tends to be pretty reliable. There are though less traveled alternatives such as Brave and Opera.

Re: Download Never Finishes
Personally I avoid Edge.
Microshaft is soooo sure they know what you NEED it's very difficult to bypass say it "Not Microsoft Certified" (i.e. did you pay Microsoft to include your product on their certified list) protections it's very annoying.
