Hi mate . I just tried and downloaded (save as) on a vista and Win8 laptop, both with no problems, it downloaded with 200kb/sec and worked just fine. The files are recognized also. So no problems here. To try it for you I installed the demo version on my laptop I don't use for music, and it did that fine.
Hmm, what could it be? In my browser, firefox, I have "extras" "downloads". You see the downloaded file there. Just doubleclick it (I save the files to my machine, I do not "run" them). You choose what you'd like to install, (rtas-file is not needed if you don't have protools. Both 32 bit and 64 bit versions of the plugin are there - you need only one, depending on your machine and host. You could of course install both to try them out, whatever you like or need. You install the standalone too, so you can directly play pianoteq without using a host like Cubase or Reaper or whatever.)
Then you tell pianoteq where the folder for your vst-plugins is, or just use the one that is suggested.
It installs after just a few clicks. When you're done you can open the standalone version or a host and load your pianoteq as plugin there. I guess you know all that perfectly, but just wanted to make sure.
I have no clue why the download should not show up....hmmm....
I always bought directly from pianoteq, but that's of course your decision. All the best, and have fun, pianoteq is superb^^. Maybe others will chime in and help, if you specify what happens so that you can't see the downloaded file. all the best!
