Maybe the server is so busy right now…?
Now I’m getting this error after launching the SDA. 
then this.
I’m using ESET, and no VPN. I tried turning off the ESET of AntiVirus as well as the Firewall feature but still no luck. Should I download Cubase v12.0.10 individually? If that’s the case, could you give me a direct download link?
I see! I’ll give it a try. 
Hi,
Do you have the SDA installed on the system C drive, please?
hmm… I could open the SDA but this issue came again.
By the way, I downloaded “Steinberg_Download_Assistant_1.32.1_Installer_win.exe”.
Yes. I installed it on the C drive(system drive).
I also have ESET and had no issues upgrading the SDA and then Cubase to 12.0.10.
I’m using Windows 10 Pro.
I just discovered the log file in the folder “AppData\Local\Steinberg Download Assistant\logs”.
Here is the log(Timezone is JST)… But I almost gave up to install via SDA. I’ll install v12.0.10 individually.

You have nothing in your windows hosts file blocking access? I mean, you’d know if you had altered that - so doubtful.
But I applied a list of ad-blockers in there once based on a website guide, and it killed an adobe download tool many months later, spent hours working out what was causing it (duh!).

My hosts file is so simple and there is no customized…
# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
i’ve only just discovered Windows Sandbox, don’t really know anything about it, other than, maybe it could be used for testing something like this(?). ie, not sure if Sandbox uses your system settings, or if it’s an actual separate virtual OS.
My system doesn’t use any kind of VM(ex. Hyper-V) now. And yes… I know about the Sandbox but it’s a little complicated to install just the Cubase using VM configuration. (Haha, I’m actually a server engineer and I know what it is!

So your drive G references on that log is ok and can be written to?
And what if you try to ping download.steinberg.net ? Does it resolve with the dl server?
System Time/clock is in sync?
Yes, of course, my G drive is fine to store any files. And I can connect “download.steinberg.net”, for example, I could download the latest C12 with this endpoint URL already. But… if possible, I’d like to install the latest C12 via SDA.
I wonder what would happen if you uninstalled both the SDA and SAM, then only installed the SDA first.
