Hello,
Since Friday evening, I try to install Mingw 6.1.0 on a Windows 8.1 (and not very up to date).

So I downloaded the installer nearly 10 times and each time I got this error : "The file has been downloaded incorrectly!" with the installation of : "i686-6.1.0-posix-dwarf-rt_v5-rev1".

I tried the last version too : 6.3.0 but same error.

Thank you for your time and have a nice day.

Hi.

I have the same problem. Tried on two Win 7 x64 (1 VM, 1 host). Both give this error with the installer I downloaded today. Repository list download is ok.

Thanks,
