Downloaded Windows installer, opened it, got this message:
Setup was unable to download a required file.
Is this repeatable?
Are there any installation logs at all?
Yes; none mentioned in the error box. Where would the installation logs be?
Benjamin,
If they exist they are likely in something like "my documents/Logos/Logos Logs" (Sorry I'm not at a Windows desktop and can't check the exact name.

It looks like the "Background Intelligent Transfer Service" in Windows is either disabled or broken. Logos 5 and 6 require this service to download files.
The "fix it" tool in this KB article may repair the missing components: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058
Worked like a charm. Thanks a bunch!
It works perfectly for me too! Thanks!
Sometimes this is caused by a metered connection (wifi or cellular).
To solve, see https://support.logos.com/hc/en-us/articles/360008567331 and choose "Less Common Solutions".
Confirm that the connection to the internet is not metered within Windows.
Turning off metered connection got me past the "unable to download a required file" error. Thanks!
it works for me..thanks.....great info
