Installing ORBX Product

[snapitbik 2]

Hi Just  try to install  FTX global base and get stuck on unwrapping installer, been waited for 30 min already still  stuck  with bar remaining to around 80% approx any idea to  overcome this issue . its Prepar3d 2.5 without hotfix.    i have got around 1tb hd space left and regarding antiviirus i have only malware bytes enabled. 

 

Thank you

For starts I'd cancel the install, restart the computer and give it another try and if that fails, it might well be there's a flaw in the download and you could try if a new download will work.

You'll get better support at ORBX forums.

[snapitbik 2]

no support yet from Orbx so jump in AVSIM  .

any help guys just did what advised by 

Demious    

Still no luck

It's a large download, but I would probably down load it again, sounds like you might have a corrupt file....

downloaded from flightsim store this morning two times already

Yep 99% sure it's corrupt.

just installed it myself into 2.5 and had no problems.i would use a download manager.

speeds up download and you can resume if it stops.

I had the same problem, let it run. Global for me took 1.5 hours to unwrap and Vector too about 1.8-2. It sucks but you've got to let it just run. If you'd like I can show you the temp folders to look at to make sure it actually is still running instead of just frozen.

Dear Steve from which server did u download the file;   Europe Global UK  or any other ,

[steve howlett 137]

Flightimstores UK server.I also use IDM a download manager.it's payware but very good with autoresume.normally with my 100mb cable i can download Global if i have to in about 10 mins

I just installed FTX Global, FTX Vector, FTX openLC Europe and FTX Stockholm-Arlanda and all products took ridiculously long to un-wrap and I haven't seen this before when installing earlier versions of these products so something must have changed making it take this long.

 

I have the same computer and I have a fast one so certainly the culprit isn't my PC.

Use a download manager as recommended by ORBX eg flashget. I get corrupt files occasionally but never with a manager

[WebMaximus 372]

Since the un-wrapping process completes successfully I don't see how it could be a corrupt download?

nothing  unusual Richard   suppose  depends  on a few  things  on how  big  the  file  was  etc,  main thing  did  it  install correctly  is  the main  thing  to worry  about  not  the length of time  to  un wrap
