[possible bug] Shows error while installation via Chocolatey & from website

Post by roopeshor6 »

I tried to download FreeCAD using chocolatey. But i get ERROR: The remote file either doesn't exist, is unauthorized, or is forbidden for url 'https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/rele ... taller.exe'
(details in file attached). Now what to do?
UPDATED: I downloaded freecad from https://freecadweb.org/downloads.php
But it shows NSIS Error.

You use the wrong URL. You find https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/rele ... aller1.exe on FreeCAD's download page.

Well I once downloaded it from website. But that installer doesn't work. It says File has been corrupted.

We have seen here quite some FreeCAD infos with that version, so I guess it is rather a download problem than a problem with the uploaded version.
