    Launcher does that sometimes. Just wait (it can take up to 15 minutes) and it will start the download process. At least for me.

  • 6306e0ddb74578f2​  Is that the launcher's installer tha won't open?  As in, you downloaded the content fine, but when trying to install it, you only saw this black box?  If so, it's possible some previous content broke the installer.  Another reason this can happen is if you've blocked the game's access to the FeaturedItems folder, so let me know whether (and how) you've done this.

    Please also let me know whether you have a lot of other Store content already installed.  Sometimes when this happens, the existing installed content breaks too, in which case it's necessary to reinstall everything, so please test your other content in-game to see whether it's still loading.
