Hello, I used to work with Ardour/Linux. Now, I have tried to install Ardour on Win 10 for a friend and it failed:
"Installer integrity check has failed. Common causes include incomplete download and damaged media. Contact the installer’s author to obtain a new copy.
More information at: http://nsis.sf.net/NSIS_Error
I haven’t gotten that error before while installing on Windows. Where did you download the installer? That webpage link on the error message appears to be related to Sourceforge, which isn’t used by the Ardour project. If you downloaded Ardour anywhere other than this website, try a copy provided here (even the demo) and see if you still get the error.
FWIW I tried with a nightly/full in Windows 11 and got a similar error message but not from NSIS or at least it didn’t tell so.
I suspect it’s the usual thing, it can’t verify the package origin and thus refuses to install. I could get by by clicking the “Show details” link which opened another cryptic line of explanation text and the option to install nevertheless. That’s missing in the OP screenshot so this is not extremely helpful, just my 2 cents
Thanks you for your quick response Robin. Checksums are ok. I tried the installation again on another Windows computer and it worked. Strange, I can’t understand why it works on one Windows computer and not on another. I also had success with wine.
It’s a pleasant community here and I’m happy to be able to make my small contribution as a subscriber, thank you!
It might be not related to your situation, but i experienced something similar a few years back. I had constantly corrupted files on my Desktop PC and i also played a Online Game and the launcher found constantly Game related, corrupt files and repaired them. It got so worse that if i copied files from one folder to another they where also corrupted.
Long story short: It turned out the RAM memory modules where faulty and after a replacement the problem was solved.
