Cannot Run .exe for Maestro on W10

Hi,

When I try running the executable file, which I have extracted to my desktop, I get an error.

"An error occurred whiled downloading a required file. You may retry downloading the file or cancel setup.

Also, if it helps, my computer is not connected to the internet. Might that hold things up?

I also asked chatGPT (haha) and it recommended me to download .NET Framework 3.5, but I couldn’t get that to work either

Below is my error log:

Somewhat surprisingly, ChatGPT is on the right track. Your error message is indicating that it is having trouble downloading the .NET Framework 3.5 (which makes sense since it is not connected to the internet). So, I recommend downloading and installing it separately before trying to run the Maestro setup.exe.

It sounds like you might have tried that and ran into more problems; if so, could you elaborate on what happened?
