Tried re-installing this today, and the RWP file included is corrupted. Is there any work-around for this?

I just reinstalled this. I did not use utilities, I unpacked with 7z and dropped the Asset folder directly into the Railworks.

This file has been online and unchanged for years and this is the first time I'm hearing about a potential corruption. !*don-know!*

Have you tried re-downloading it? Otherwise, I'd recommend using the manual installation method AmericanSteam described above.

Cheers,
Michael

I use winrar to unzip the files manually, going through utilities is just a waste of time for me. I tried redownloading two other times to the same result. Don’t really know what to do now.

I never had this so I just installed it using the rwp and they are there and fine. For some reason you must be getting a bad D/L. What size is the file as downloaded and what size is the rwp after you un-zipped it?

This brings back memories from a couple years ago, when users with MS broswers (IE, Edge) suddenly couldn't download any of the .rwp files any more because their browsers tried to open them as plain text files for whatever reason, and MS had removed the "save as..." right-click function (also for whatever reason). But now I see that the PC GP9 pack is actually an rwp in a zip file, so that shouldn't matter. Do you perhaps have another browser you can try the download with? I'm using Firefox and Opera and both download the file just fine and 7.zip reports no errors in the downloaded file.

I too used Firefox and unzipped it with the 'Extract all' button choice.
