Unable to download stardock software

from Stardock Forums

Is anyone else having an issue downloading updates to their object desktop applications? eg Start11 tells me I have an update, but when I click 'Download & install' it gets stuck downloading '0 bytes of 54.49MB' and just stops there. Also happening for Fences6 update, either through the application or using object desktop. I have tried browsing directly to cdn.stardock.us and it is timing out in the browser if that helps?

This has been happening for about 1 week now. I have an active object desktop subscription.

Sorry for the issues, almost certainly is going to be an IP related block, we have been getting hit by a ton of AI bots hitting all the forums and conveniently, all at the same time. 

Can you DM your IP address and I will take a look and make sure to get you download links.

Start11 - Customize the Start Menu and Taskbar in Windows 10/11.

I have already tried that several times and it fails.

This site can’t be reached

 

cdn.stardock.us took too long to respond.

I tested and I can still able to download. Perhaps, you can DM Brad (Reply#1) your IP address, for him to review it.

Also, consider using VPN/

I am not using a VPN !!  .

Stardock please provide an alternate download option.

As mentioned above, please PM/DM (Private Message) Brad your IP address, he will try to unblock your IP address so you can download it normally.

To PM, left click on his avatar, a drop down menu shall open->Choose Private message.
