[RESOLVED] P3D V4.3 md5 checksum mismatch scene2.cab despite many download attempts

[carlmagnus]

Hello,

I'm having trouble downloading scene2.cab. It's the last file I need in order to complete the installation of P3D V4.3. I've made 30 attempts and no matter which download manager I use, the checksums don't match.

I followed Poppet's to the letter:
Used a download manager (3 in fact)
Checked the MDS Checksum via the recommended utility
Switched off Anti Virus
Tried different browsers
Even tried a different PC
And also tried about 5 times downloading the whole package again with the same result: hash mismatch.

The tried running the installer anyway but predictably, it closes with an error each time - pointing to scene2.cab as the culprit (checksum mismatch)

I'm at a loss now, short of asking if there is a way to download this file via FTP? Is there a chance that the source file might be corrupted?

I'm running Windows 10 1803 on brand new hardware Intel 8086K CPU, Asus Maximus Hero Mobo, 16Gigs RAM, 1TB dedicated SSD for P3D.

Here's the log output:

Hi Again, just to update. I managed to get the file downloaded to an old laptop running Windows 7! The install took a couple of attempts. It succeeded the second time after I deleted (moved) all the P3D related files in C:\ProgramData\Package Cache

Why the two PCs running Windows 10 1803 couldn't download cleanly I'll never know.
