So I've been trying to install kaspersky free for the past few hours but to no avail.

The installer runs fine but during the downloading phase of it, it downloads normally for 51.8mb out of the 156.6mb then starts to "download" very fast all the way to 156.6 mb, after that the installer states that the installer is corrupted and the only fix that I can find online is download the installer and try again. But I've done that at least 5 times already but I keep running into the same issue

I've also deleted the previous installers before trying again, cleared cache using ccleaner, manually searched for my remnants and deleted them before trying again. I've also manually disabled windows defender before the install. But all the while I still come back to the same issue.

Has any faced this issue before? Any other fixes you think I should try?

I forgot to take a screenshot of it but it seems that other people are facing it too, here is a screenshot from the kaspersky forums that matches what I see as well

It seems, that different servers offer a different version, Global version kfa18.0.0.405aben_12579 does not even start, the rest start, but I do not want to install it.

But the issue happens after you click the install which prompts the installer to download the files needed first, which is where the error comes in

No error here, using Israel version "kfa18.0.0.405aben_13262", it seems that global version is outdated, so it fails to finish by design.
