Sonar Platinum validating files

Hey guys!
 
I installed Sonar Platinum when it came out and it worked fine. Today I decided to reinstall because I wanted to move stuff to another harddrive. I uninstalled Sonar and re-ran installation from the Command Center. It downloads files but gets stuck at Validating Files. I've tried it twice now and it gets stuck there for hours. First installation a while back when relatively quick.
 
If I check the download folder there are lots of files there.
 
I use Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit, Quad Capture, latest drivers, firmware etc...

No the Command Centre is just a small application that handles the installation it downloads the appropriate files and then runs the installers so you dont have to. Or do I misunderstand your reply (english isn't my native language)

Hi Gang...

I realized this just a little earlier and I'm wondering.

I've got my DAW network connected but there are problems with download limits and such. I've got CC installed and registered...

If I am nsuccessful at getting it downloaded through CC, I will have to download it at another location/machine. I know how to do that...

What I'm wondering is if I place the file into CC's download folder. Will I be able to use CC to install and authorize? That isn't data intensive, so as CC easily registered with my account. I'm hoping this will work so that CC tracks my updates...

Does anyone have an idea if this will work? I might not have to, but.........

Thanks!

Thanks mudgel...

I managed to download and install using CCC last night. I don't know how or when I will get the other pieces (help and tutorials being over 1G), but Platinum is installed on my main DAW and appears to be working... I wasn't able to really work it yet as I'm on limited generator time, but I'm reasonably happy. The install was painless and Niel must have gotten his fix in place as the missing PC modules list didn't happen. All appears as it should so far...

When I get the new laptop, I will install CCC and copy the sonar file to the expected folder... As I will be going back and forth between the two machines as electricity is available...

I managed to use CCC, But during my research I learned that you can still do things the old way and even a hybrid as I will do for my laptop...

Go to your account and you can download the files as usual... Install CCC and place the files in CCC's download folder...

Then you should be able to netball and authorize easily... If it doesn't work (I haven't tried it yet) you can manually launch the installer and use the offline authorizing method which simply involves invoking the authorize note from Sonar and then running the reply... There are full instructions nine but I can't remember where...

Good luck!
