Starship 2024 installer not launching past initial screen

[Martyn]

Please try downloading the latest installers (ending in ‘a’) if you were encountering the issue with the originals.

[ftzzzz]

Weeeee, new installer works. Thank you.

[Zaki87]

Thank you for the fast fix! works!

[Jabba87]

The new installer still does not work for me.

[Outermarker]

Not working for me unfortunately, same situation as before.

[AstroBriggs]

Same results for msfs 2024 for me as well

[Martyn]

Please note that this is a large EXE installer and therefore there will be a delay before the installer window pops up. If it doesn't happen after a minute or two then please contact the support team.

Same results for msfs 2024, installer not working as intended even with Rev A

[Martyn]

We are in the process of uploading ZIP versions of the installers as alternatives for those of you having issues with the running of the EXE installers. Note that is a separate issue to the one already fixed with activation.

The MSFS 2020 installer works for me (it appears a process called FindPkgs runs along side of it), but the MSFS 2024 installer hangs per the original post. Both installers are of the 'a' variant.

I have the same issue as @Outermarker - 'a' update did not fix it. The initial InstallShield window opens immediately, then it backgrounds itself and chewing up 7% CPU with no disk or network activity. It's like this for minutes. This after a reboot.

I'll open a ticket if it doesn't do something within 30 minutes.

Edit: the zip file does not fix it.
Edit: for giggles, I turned off my firewall. No change.

Confirming that the 'a' install did indeed fix my 404 error. Big thanks!

[Avionic]

Zip file is up

[mari8it]

not working disappointed to

[sternn]

its a zip file that has an installer in it.... When the installer is already not working.... sigh

[ysaf]

Zip file installer is not responding either

[Jerrfyloob]

Can confirm, zip file is broken too

[Avionic]

.Zip file starts the same InstallScript Setup Launcher titled BlackSquare Starship MSFS 2024 that fails to go anywhere.
