Hello everyone!

I bought Quake yesterday and I downloaded the installer. When I try to open it there is a huge delay and when I click run nothing happens. I tried this with a game I previously downloaded but it went fine. I'm not using GOG Galaxy. I tried to find the Quake forum but that led me here.

The Quake forum.

You are saying that you can't even install the game?

I don't know anything about your problem, but if you're looking for the Quake forum, it's here:

Edit: Have you tried redownloading the file? It could have been corrupted or downloaded improperly.

Try running it without Galaxy. Use your browser or the GOG Downloader.

Where is this "run" button coming from? Try throwing in some screenshots, if you can. I think I'm missing something.

P.S. Duh. Sorry. I missed the sentence somehow in your OP.

1. make sure checksums match
2. whats your OS?

Redownloaded a third time and that seems to have done the trick.

A third time?

Use them - checksums.
