Mike, the new Install file is smaller than the old one: 18,321 Kb (I cut out a bunch of deadwood).

Using the Microsoft Checksum utility at this location (https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/down....aspx?id=11533) to test integrity of downloaded files, I ran a Checksum on the file I posted for download (RdssInstall.2.2.2020.22.exe).

The Checksum value is: 738fa00c1046db96bb6cd741b227bed8 rdssinstall.22.2020.22.exe (corrected)

You could download and run the same Checksum utility to verify that you got a complete file - just read the readme.txt file. If that checks out identical, then you got the full file and the problem lies elsewhere.

I am not a Mac or Parallels expert at all, though some here do use that environment. I will reach out to them and point them to this post.

So far, looks like several dozen RDSS users have downloaded and installed the new version, but I can't tell which ones are running in Parallels. No similar complaints to yours so far

That's all I got so far. Let me know if I can do anything else.

Ted


P.S. FWIW, I will try to build this checksum test for download file integrity into future updates.
