Please wait until the whole file has been successfully downloaded before trying to open or extract the archive.

the result of the third attempt was exactly the same as previously :?

later edit:
I have tried snapshot 3.32.3.1 and it works perfectly fine,
so it sounds like the issue is with 3.32.3 only...

Perhaps, your browser is giving you the same, corrupt cached file over and over again. In any case, the file on our server is correct.

Thanks for the confirmation and pointing me in the direction of cache.
Clearing it solved the problem :twisted:
