Qt installer stuck

I'm running the Qt Open Source installer on Windows 7.

It's at 46% during the "Retrieving meta information from remote repository" step. It quickly got there and got stuck there 55 minutes already.

I tried restarting the installer and this time it got stuck again at the same step, but at 64%.

Any ideas?

Notes:

  • The installer name is qt-unified-windows-x86-2.0.3-1-online.exe
  • I believe the Qt version it's going to install is Qt 5.7, as that's the latest Qt version as of now
  • I'm going to try the offline installer now
Solution

  • The solution that worked for me was to download and use the offline installer instead of the online one.
