Can't Download from OOTP Website - Help

Murph3 · 03-26-2016, 05:44 PM

I've tried to download OOTP 17 for the first time today from the OOTP website, but upon downloading it is not listing the file as an exe. I've tried several times. Instead the file is listed as ootp17setup with a file type as 1427482934. I cannot execute and install the file. I am using Internet Explorer. Something wrong with what I'm doing, or with the file itself?

Been playing OOTP since v5. Never seen this issue. Any help much appreciated.

Thanks!

Weird, it does the same thing for me in IE. Try renaming the file you downloaded to .exe. If that doesn't work this direct link should work: http://cdnfiles.ootpdevelopments.com...otp17setup.exe

Really weird. My wife has a Mac and I downloaded the Windows version on her computer through Safari and it listed the file as an exe (even though, of course, I know I can't install the Windows version on a Mac). Seems to be an Internet Explorer issue, at least for some. Does the setup file show up as an exe using Chrome?

Yes, it works fine in Chrome. Link goes to the address I posted above in Chrome, in IE the link goes to http://cdnfiles.ootpdevelopments.com...399.1459035938 for some reason.
