Does your workplace require a proxy to be used to access the Internet? Or are you behind a firewall that may prohibit your network? Please follow the guidelines in Proxy Configuration if so.
Also I see an EPERM: operation not permitted error in here. Make sure you have the proper permissions where you are installing Cypress.

My workplace doesn't require proxy and I can download cypress.zip via console.
I'm turned off firewall now and I have no result.
I know about warning EPERM it's not related to cypress, this is regular behaviour for rudiment dependencies.

I got the same error on the azure pipeline but with yarn and I was able to workaround.

workaround
I remove from my package.json @testing-library/cypress.
I refactored my tests.
I delete the node_modules folder rm -rf node_modules
I run yarn install
and It works!!!

Getting the same thing for Zeit's Now, Netlify, and CircleCI: https://github.com/OperationCode/front-end/pull/1076
Can install locally no problem.
Weird. It seemed to resolve itself today.

Getting this again today for 4.6.0. It seems like binaries get corrupted on some sort of random, self-resolving basis.

Im getting the same error for 4.7.0 version even though the proxy is configured.

I have the same "corruption" issue where the checksum fails, but the filesize matches. https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/7761
For no reason at all, after trying to go back to 3.8.3, and then re-downloading 4.8.0, it worked. amazing. Lost about 8+ hours to this.

I get this error always when 99% of packaged download successfully!
The only thing I've changed recently is npm.

If you're using yarn workspaces and getting some corrupt downloads, it may be this issue https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/6789.
The original issue opened did not involve a corrupted download however, but it seems like most of the comments are referencing corrupted download issues.

I always come back to this issue and find that it's always the fact there are two instances in the lockfile. I fix it by forcing the correct version via the "resolutions" field in package.json.

Thanks @kylemh
This fixed the issue for me.
In my case i had @vue/cli-plugin-e2e-cypress (which has Cypress as a dependency) and a separate entry for Cypress in my package.json.
I would have guessed that npm/yarn would figure a out a good way to satisfy the requirements with just one version of Cypress, but i could see, like you said, there were two entries for different versions in the lockfile.

I always come back to this issue and find that it's always the fact there are two instances in the lockfile. I fix it by matching the resolutions field.
Thanks @kylemh - that worked for me as well. We were having issues with our build on CircleCi

If you see where the conflicting dependency is coming from, I urge y'all to go to those packages and open an issue asking that Cypress be listed as a _peerDependency_ (or devDependency if they've simply made a mistake).
kylemh
on 25 Aug 2020
@jennifer-shehane based on emoji reacts and my own personal experience, I feel like this issue can be closed if there were a better error during installation. Something to indicate that the dev likely has multiple instances listed in their lockfile.
kylemh

This can be solved using yarn upgrade cypress
This issue should be closed.
PS: I'm on a Mac OS
