[QUOTE="Brown Study, post: 426510, member: 3889"] It may be that the disk image inside the compressed, downloaded file is mistaken for the application if it isn't made clear that two files must be opened first, and that the app to be dragged is the third file. This error can be compounded when the person whose setup automatically opens the compressed file speaks of only one file that must be opened, or doesn't mention it at all if the computer opens the compressed file and the disk image, as well. In either case, the disk-image-drive icon becomes synonymous with the app inside it — and neither party realizes it — with the image file containing the app being dragged into the Applications folder.
