I have this same problem and I have tried this. It still hasn't done
anything. The download just goes backwards after a few seconds. Any other
ideas? :/

Greetings AllyCat,

If it's going backwards, then it has encountered a serious error and then rolls back the
installation. Since this is a really old thread, instead of writing a small novel about all
the possible things to start checking, it would really be helpful if you could provide what
version you're actually trying to install (that MSI is for 8.5), what Windows version you're
using and any information about what else you've tried.
