An error occurred trying to download Skyline application? zhuma  2022-01-31 07:30
 

I am not sure why I am getting this error: An error occurred trying to download 'https://skyline.gs.washington.edu/software/Skyline-release-64_21_2/Skyline.application'.

See the setup log file located at 'C:\Users\zhuma\AppData\Local\Temp\17\VSD3E9E.tmp\install.log' for more information.

I also tried with the firewall disabled, but no luck.

The error that you are getting is:

URLDownloadToCacheFile failed with HRESULT '-2146697208'

When I google that error, people on the internet seem to say that you can fix this problem by going into Internet Explorer (or maybe Microsoft Edge) and changing some security setting related to trusted sites.

I would recommend that you use Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge, and you try going to this page:
https://skyline.gs.washington.edu/software/Skyline-release-64_21_2/Skyline.application

The browser might give you an error message which gives you a better idea what is going wrong.

If you cannot install Skyline the usual way, another option is the "unplugged installer":
