Is the Witcher 8GB or 13GB?

I still cannot get The Withcer downloaded and yes I have submitted a ticket.

But one question is The Witcher says its 13GB's, but when I am trying to download it, its say its 8.41GB's.

I wonder if this is part of my download problem.

The download file is 8.4gb.  13gb may represent the disk space needed for installation.

 

The log (click the impulse "?" icon top corner for options like displaying the error log) should help troubleshoot.

I have tried downloading the Witcher 8 times now with the same Invalid Download Error every time.

Ideas?

I would open a ticket with support if a stardock blue doesn't come by your thread.  The original problem I had getting TW:EE from Impulse was different than yours, so I hesitate to suggest what it was I ended up having to do, because while I was sorting that issue out last week, Impulse was updated at least once by Stardock.

If I had to take one and only one wild guess, the first error " The operation has timed out." might be related to the problems Impulse has with BITS services.  You might want to check to toggle the option set for downloader preference.  Click the stardock icon (top left of Impulse window) select Preferences, and under Connection check the box to use the new downloading mechanism.  This is on by default in new Impulse clients, iirc, but it's possible that it's off on yours.  Good luck, and hope the topic bump brings a blue by for you.

That is very strange in the error log. If you haven't heard from us by tomorrow at support please PM me the ticket number and I will follow up with you.

If I could edit the above it would say OP successfully got Witcher to install late yesterday.
