Subject says it all. So called “corrupt zip files” error. I’ve tried all the tricks and this same topic goes back years so I believe I’m not the only one having this problem.
I just paid $32.99 for this product. It has no value if it won’t install. Either a solution or a refund is desired.
Thank you

Of course you are not the "only" one with this problem: network issues or antivirus corrupting the files can happen with any software, and of course they are not obviously normal (unless you think we really had corrupted files online), so even if it happens to tiny minority of users, you will find discussions about it.
And, I don't think the installer just says "corrupt zip files", I'm sure there's a text line saying which file it was trying to download, or if it was on the extraction phase already, which is not clear from what you wrote so, try to be more precise, and we'll surely find out what is the problem on your side is preventing to getting the correct files.

Thanks for the response. It’s pretty much much every zip fle, calls it corrupt and presses on to the next zip, rinse and repeat. It then says it will delete those files so I can try again. I’ve done the recommended work arounds found here and elsewhere all to no avail, hence my post here. So once again, a solution or a refund is desired, I will take either please and thank you.
Best,

Well, of course a solution would be found, so it's best to stop repeating the "r" word, since we always explain everything. You can start by checking this suggestion I posted before:

Tried the batch. It downloaded gobs of zips, two big ones last then closed. Ran installer and once more it reported the corrupt zip message. After seven errors I gave up tho I did screenshot them in case they might be useful. Seems to be boilerplate with specific file names repeated as nauseum. Got any other suggestions before we move on to the “r” word again?
Thanks,

Here is where the batch and zips were placed
