1. The bug / behavior you have encountered

  • While attempting to download the Starlight Mini model in Topaz Video AI, the download process consistently freezes at exactly 3.8GB.
  • Despite multiple attempts (including restarting, disabling VPN/firewall, running as administrator, and clearing temporary files), the download does not progress past this point.
  • This issue prevents any use of the Starlight Mini model, making the feature completely inaccessible.
  • If this problem is not resolved promptly, I will be requesting a refund for my purchase.

I have searched the forums and found that others are experiencing similar issues, but no official solution is available. Please provide a resolution or alternative download method. If the issue cannot be resolved, I will proceed with a refund request.

Hello, this is likely caused by a connection blocker. Common connection blockers are due to a new VPN, proxy, firewall, or anti-virus software. Are you using any of these?
