I've been following the conversation between you and Brian & decided to do some comparisons of files. I've been saving older images of both the Gearotics msi files and the coinstall.exe files by appending the version number to each file name. I downloaded V2.00B on 3/9/23 and today I downloaded the file via:
https://gearotic.com/GearoticMotion.msi
I then downloaded the version that worked for Brian:
https://gearotic.com/GearoticMotion1.msi
using comp /N file1 file2 I found that the version I downloaded on 3/9/23 is identical to that downloaded via GearoticMotion1.msi.
What surprised me is that the https://gearotic.com/GearoticMotion.msi download produced a file ~10Kbytes larger than the one I had downloaded on 3/9/23.
When I install a new version I run both the GearoticMotion.msi file as well as the coninstall.exe file although this is really not necessary. My version is installed on a different drive and folder specifically F:/Design_Graphics/Gearotics. I always make sure that the coinstall.exe loads files to the same directory.
I use firefox to download the files and I'm running Windows 10. In firefox I have it setup to clear cache, history, & website date when I close firefox. I also only sync Bookmarks across platforms.
The larger filesize mentioned above is really a puzzler.
