Greetings and welcome to the Autodesk Community!

 

Sorry for the download troubles, but I don't see an attached image of the error you are seeing. In the meantime, please take the following steps to get the best download performance:

 

  • In the preferences or options area of your preferred browser, remove pop-up blockers and allow access to all *autodesk.com sites.
  • In the preferences or options area of your preferred browser, delete cookies, temporary internet files, and history.
  • Turn off your personal firewall or VPN, if you use one.
  • Disable UAC
  • Close and reopen your preferred browser.

If you take these steps and the issue persists, please send another post with the attachment of the error. Thank you!

For some reason it wont allow me to attach attachments. so what come up is Communication Failure download and indtallation has been interrupted by a lost connection between the autodesk website and this computer. The most likely causes are: -The installation package was moved from the install location, which is not supported -The autodesk download website was closed or manually refreshed before the installer launched -A firewall has blocked the network ports Please address these issues if possible, return to the website, and then click again on Install now, or use anoter download method: Download now or Browser download. So i tried all the above and what you suggested. I then went onto the autodesk website to see if there was a download now or browser download option and i couldn't see it on the page http://www.autodesk.com/suites/building-design-suite/free-trial anywhere Thanks again for your help

Would you mind trying to download your software from our Virtual Agent? Sometimes downloading from a new location often resolves the problem. Let me know how it goes, thanks!
