...Is not a valid win32 application [SOLVED]
I need help with my Complete Set of the Penumbra series download.
Last night i left my computer on overnight to download the set, i woke up in the morning to find an error of some sort with the download, at that time i accepted it that my internet may have disconnected at some point, so i left it on to download again while i went to work, when i came back, it had finished except, it said that the file was not a vaild win32 application, i then found the Collection was saved to the FireFox downloads section but refused to open up giving me the same Win32 error.

Any help on how to sort this out would be greatly appreciated!

It sounds as if it does not get downloaded correctly, perhaps as you say the download is disconnected. Have you tried downloading from both of the servers that are available? One from Esellerate and one from us.

Yeah, but it's happened on both occasions i tried to download it.

I've only tried the Esellerate one, i'll try downloading from the shelf.frictionalgames link in the email i got when i bought it?

but my question is why it'd tell me it's not a vaild win32 app, is it a win64 app instead?

No it is not a win64, so I think the download is corrupt and that is why it complains.

Why would the download be corrupt both times?

Either way, i'll try the shelf download again tonight.

I'm downloading the game from your store.

I'll reply again in approx 1 hour and 45 mins when it's done.
