2. I've done most of the things they've suggested, except edit the hosts file.

BUT, since I'm getting exactly the same thing both with my desktop machine PLUS my new laptop, I doubt that editing the hosts file will help. I talked to the support tech from SkillForge, and he said that I should be fine using Sublime Text, which installed without a problem. Also, since I talked to him, I've installed Sublime Text add-ons, WinSCP, Chrome, and a couple of other things we use in house. No problem with any of them.

I've had lunch and am in a better headspace this afternoon. I just didn't want to have what the instructor expected and lose class time because of it. Came into work today already in a bad mood (son helped with that), then was totally frustrated with this install, Windows 10, Defender and McCafee. If we had a scream room here at work, I would have been using it this morning!

Thanks for the link! I bookmarked it and will work on this issue after the class is done because "darnit" the install should work!
