Download and Install of Topaz Photo AI

I downloaded the install package for Topaz Photo AI into my iMac/Big Sur. I already have several Topaz products. I noted that the download file was of zero bytes. When I went to open the file, MacOS gave me an error message to the extent: "Unknown Developer, cannot verify that the file is clean of malware." I opened System Preferences>Security and unlocked the General tab. I selected Topaz Labs and clicked Open Anyway. Same result as before.
I contacted Topaz Labs by online chat and e-mail and waited a week. Still no answer.
I thought I would poll UHH to see if anyone else has had this problem and how was it resolved.

Typically, a zero byte download means the file didn’t finish downloading. I would try downloading the file again, confirm the file size and try reinstalling.

I downloaded the install package for Topaz Photo A... (show quote)


Never had any problem with my install. I would just delete it and download and re-install.

Similar problem. Different error message. Waiting to hear from Topaz. Not impressed with their customer service.

I finally rec'd an e-mail reply from Topaz Labs. They suggested downloading from https://topazlabs.com/downloads/.
Which I did. The download worked and so did the app. Many thanx to all that replied.

On occasion I have found I already had a file with the same name.
The program would deny me the ability to "install" a duplicate.
