[libreoffice-users] Downloading Libre Office correctly?

Hello


Is there currently a problem downloading the Libre Office windows 
installer?


Previously, I have managed to download the following version:

LibreOffice_24.8.4_Win_x86-64.msi


This previous version had a file size of 346 MB


However, when I went to repeat the process, just now, with the same 
version, the installer is only 20MB.


I know for a fact, this doesn't work because I spent quite a while 
trying to obtain the latest up to date version: 
LibreOffice_25.2.1_Win_x86-64_sdk (1).msi


While these 20MB versions installed onto the SSD as found in add and 
remove programs. The setup wizard, didn't provide the typical / custom 
install options. Nor custom desktop item either.


The only thing that worked was the 346 MB download version. Now though, 
when trying to download LibreOffice 24.8.5. (that version is also being 
downloaded as 20MB,) also using the msi installer.


I hope this makes sense. Not sure if it's of further assistance at all 
but I have copied and pasted what the properties say on the working one 
below.


Ideally, I would love to install the latest version, V25.2.1. However, 
that's not happening for me due to the same issue mentioned above.


Just wanted to point all this out, as I don't know if I am experiencing 
a bug or not. Tested with web browsers, Edge, Brave and Fire Fox. All 
had same results. I.E. downloaded smaller file size, not the larger 
which I think should be happening to achieve a complete install onto a 
Windows Pc. Talking of which my current is Windows 11 Version 24H2 (OS 
Build 26100.3194)


Any incites, would be most helpful.


Regards
