So my friends and I have decided to start a new Minecraft server, and we decided to use a server on CurseForge so we can mod it. The issue that I am running into right now, is when I go to try and download the launcher, it brings up the "Do you wish this program to modify" pop-up, but when I click "Yes" nothing happens after that point.
I have gone into my task manager and have seen the programs "running", but they are not installing or downloading anything.
Any and all help appreciated! I have already tried restarting and clearing cookies as well.
Hi everyone! I've had this same issue but I think I've figured something out that works! if you right click and press troubleshoot comparibility then click ' try reccomended settings' and open it from there it opens. not sure why this worked but it did lol. hope this helps! :D
Another option for this is If the CF app installer itself is failing and your on a Windows pc, you can install the Overwolf app (link below) > Unzip the .zip that is downloaded then run the ow installer. This will install the OW app which you then use its app store to find/download the CurseForge app.

Windows OW app: https://content.overwolf.com/downloads/setup/latest/regular.html

won't work I've tried everything!
I encountered this same issue. I right-clicked on the installer and selected Run as Administrator and it worked perfectly.
In reply to fivetimes132:
I did that too, running as Administrator and it still freezes up (unresponsive).
It just plain won't install.
When was the last time this installer been updated?
Maybe it's time to write a whole new installer code, from scratch.
