@Touch_of_CAS The easiest way to get it working is to temporarily disable your firewall or Windows Defender.

I just downloaded the file for installing Acid Music Studio and I cannot install this thing at all. There is no phone number to call and this is extremely frustrating. I tried suspending the firewall and no difference. PLEASE HELP

@robert-b1790 Doesn't the download continue past 0%? Then your firewall is active. It might also be necessary to disable Smart App Control temporarily (If you use Windows 11)

@Jeffrey-Jackson have you installed all pending Windows updates?

Yea it is updated

@Jeffrey-Jackson Do you have some special kind of firewall which might block the installation? Do you regularly restart your computer? Be aware to select the Restart option and not the Shut.

Have you tried to redownload the installer in case it is damaged?

Just the windows firewall

@Jeffrey-Jackson And what about restarting and redownloading the installer?

@Sean-Leach

Welcome to the Magix user to user forums.

Unfortunately your first post here, in a thread asking about the installation of Acid Music Studio 11, is asking about the location of the loops in Acid Pro 11, so nothing to do with the original question raised. Please do not hijack another user's thread in this manner.

However, if you read this support article I think you will find the answer to your question!

Hi, random Greg input/share....related!

So I've been away from Magix products for awhile (longer story), but decided to revisit my AMS11 yesterday...these random things are common in my days :)

I downloaded my AMS11 and it installed mostly ok at core (first part).

It notified and updated to current version just fine.....

I did get issues when I went to download the content packs that show when you select that from the Help menu.... the first two were fine, but the HipHop one kept erroring and stalling saying that the referenced file was not found or didn't have access to its location.... I tried everything, looked into it, searched things out , duplicated the file to desktop to point to, etc etc... I ended up just giving up after hours of trial and error. Not a great feeling once again.

Created a support ticket.

Happy to report that support was super quick and replied... that was impressive! the downside is that they wanted me to load a scanner and info gathering program via a link, give it authority to "do its thing" and report back to them.... In this day and age of hacking and complex info security, I opted to not do such a thing, especially as a first step. I quickly decided to just uninstall and pray for better luck with reloading my AP10 instead... see if there had been any updates/fixes... or how it would install and work....

I think AMS11 is a valid program, even with its bigger AP brother limitations in place, but if I'm going to have issues, I'd rather be working on the more robust AP than the limited since I own both. Not sure if there are any fixes for AP 10/11 yet, so please don't run out and upgrade because of my comments or opinions.. I already had bought them long ago.

Stick with it and hopefull support will get you going!

Please report back here so we all know the results.

Good Daw Vibes to you!
