Re: CAW Download Button Broke and 1.69 memory error
@Vulnnn What exact error are you seeing? What browser(s) did you use to try to download CAW?

- @puzzlezaddict I checked this issue and I have it too, at least in Chrome. When I click the Download button, a new tab opens and closes, but nothing downloads. In Edge, an empty window pops up, but there's nothing to click.
@mate54 I just downloaded CAW in Firefox without any issues. I did briefly see another tab open, but then it closed as I got the prompt to save the file. As far as I know, that's how it's worked for a years.
Is it possible you have some privacy setting in your browser that's blocking the store from loading whatever is supposed to be in the second tab? Even if there's no visible content in the window, it still might be processing the request or something.
@puzzlezaddict Firefox (fresh install) doesn't work either. Just an empty pop-up window (with the blue border). Edge has the same problem. Chrome opens a new tab with the download link but nothing downloads.
For convenience, I managed to copy direct download links so they can be used until the issue is resolved.

Yeah i use chrome and it would only bring up a empty tab but nothing would download, and if i used chrome inspection to grab the download link it would always download the wrong version! So i hope this gets fixed
@Vulnnn Could you try a couple other browsers, maybe Firefox and Internet Explorer? (IE isn't great, I know, but it does work reasonably well with the Sims 3 Store.) It would be useful to know whether the browser made a difference.
Thank you!!!!!
