@elduvelle yeah it can be frustrating. let's see if I can help. what's the file extension? Sometimes you just need to change the default application that is used to open the file. Other times I've had to modify the file permissions using the chmod command for the file to be executable.

@manisha you are very kind :) it’s ok I got it to install, although now I have to accept the license agreement, so to read that I have to press Enter for each additional line to show in the command line, because of course it can’t have a scroll bar like literally any other program on Earth, but once it arrives at the last line, I have to instead press Y to accept it, and if I press Enter instead, it considers I rejected it, and then I have to redo the whole process AGAIN and go more SLOWLY so that I don’t have to do it … again
(sorry, I just need to rant)

@elduvelle @manisha what program was it?

@roomey @manisha anaconda

@roomey @manisha to be fair, the install instructions are very detailed and relatively clear. But really we shouldn’t need install instructions in this day and age… there should be an install button and maybe some options and there you go!
