Unable to Open/Install Git on Windows 10

When I open the file I downloaded from https://git-scm.com/download and then Windows, nothing happens. I've tried running it as a normal user and administrator but nothing happens. Not even a processor in the Task Manager opens.

What could cause this? Is it because Git hasn't been updated for Windows 10 yet, or is it something else? I just did a clean install of Windows 10.

Solution

  • Perhaps, you could try chocolatey (even if I'm not sure it will change something...) :

    https://chocolatey.org/packages/git

    Or the RC for the next to be released git for Windows :
