Hello, I can’t download Anki. First, I clicked on Download Anki at the top, redirecting me to the download portion. Once I click the Anki 25.09 on Windows 10+, it doesn’t download the Anki installer. I’ve already gone to the exact link mentioned in previous forums ([https://github.com/ankitects/anki/releases/download/25.02.6/anki-25.02.6-windows-qt6.exe](https://github.com/ankitects/anki/releases/download/25.02.6/anki-25.02.6-windows-qt6.exe)), but it cannot be reached on my end. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Your connection timed out. You should try all the things the browser tells you to try. Also try:

1. Other network connection.
2. Home wifi (in case you are in your schools wifi).
3. Download something else from github (e.g. something from Ankidroid: [https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/releases/download/v2.23.0beta1/AnkiDroid-2.23.0beta1-arm64-v8a.apk](https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/releases/download/v2.23.0beta1/AnkiDroid-2.23.0beta1-arm64-v8a.apk)).

The issue is most likely your network, browser settings or Windows settings.
